Dracaena Marginata 'Red Margined' - Air-Purifying Madagascar Dragon Tree
The Dracaena Marginata, commonly known as the Red Margined or Madagascar Dragon tree, is a striking evergreen houseplant recognized by NASA for its exceptional air-purifying qualities. This clean air plant features flexible, pointed leaves with distinctive red edges that create a dramatic visual contrast against the ribbon-like green foliage.
Plant Characteristics
This architectural houseplant develops slim, curving stalks that serve as trunks, supporting stiff, ribbon-like leaves with vibrant red margins. The naturally sculptural growth pattern makes each Dracaena Marginata unique, with multiple stems creating an elegant, layered canopy. The red-edged leaves grow in clusters at the top of each stem, creating a fountain-like appearance that adds vertical interest to any interior space.
NASA Clean Air Plant Benefits
According to NASA's Clean Air Study, the Dracaena Marginata actively removes harmful toxins from indoor environments. This makes it an excellent choice for homes and offices where air quality is a concern. The plant works continuously to filter airborne pollutants while requiring minimal maintenance, making it both functional and decorative.
Care Requirements
The Madagascar Dragon tree thrives in moderate to bright indirect light but adapts well to lower light conditions. Water when the top inch of soil becomes dry, typically every 7-10 days depending on environmental conditions. This drought-tolerant houseplant prefers slightly dry conditions over overwatering. Average household humidity levels are sufficient, though the plant appreciates occasional misting in dry environments.
Ideal Placement
The vertical growth habit and compact root system make the Dracaena Marginata suitable for corners, entryways, and spaces where floor area is limited but height is available. The evergreen nature ensures year-round visual interest, while the red-margined foliage provides a pop of color without requiring flowers.
