Dracaena Dragon Plant ‘Tricolour’ – A Colourful and Elegant Indoor Houseplant
The Dracaena Dragon Plant ‘Tricolour’ is a beautiful tropical houseplant that adds warmth, depth, and visual interest to any indoor setting. Its long, slender leaves feature striking green, cream, and soft pink striping, giving this Dracaena Marginata variety a unique and stylish appearance. Whether placed in modern décor or more traditional interiors, the Tricolour Dragon Tree Plant brings a lively touch of the tropics to shelves, desks, and smaller spaces that need an uplifting accent.
Supplied in a 13cm Pot – 25–40cm in Height
Each Tricolour Dragon Tree Plant arrives pre-potted in a 13cm plastic nursery pot, ready to display the moment it reaches your home. With an overall height of around 25–40cm, including the pot, it provides an immediate burst of colour without overwhelming your space. Its convenient size makes it ideal for offices, bedrooms, bathrooms, and compact areas where a vibrant, easy-care plant is desired.
Striking Tricolour Leaves, Easy Care & Ideal for Any Experience Level
The Dracaena Marginata Tricolour is appreciated for its bold variegation and refined upright growth habit, offering a colourful yet minimal-maintenance plant option. Well-suited for both beginners and experienced plant owners, it grows happily with simple, consistent care. Like many Dracaena varieties, this Dragon Tree Plant may also help improve indoor air freshness by reducing certain household pollutants, making it both a decorative and functional addition to your living space.
Light, Watering & Simple Care Needs
The Dracaena Dragon Plant ‘Tricolour’ performs best in bright, indirect light, where its pink and cream hues can develop most vibrantly, though it will still adapt to slightly lower light conditions. Watering is straightforward—let the top of the soil dry out between waterings and avoid keeping the plant overly wet. Thriving in typical household temperatures and humidity, the Tricolour Dracaena remains attractive and healthy with minimal effort.
Eco-Friendly, Secure Packaging for Every Plant
At Tropical Plants UK, we care as much about the planet as we do about our plants. That’s why all our packaging is 100% recyclable and made entirely from paper and cardboard — no plastics, no waste.
Each plant is carefully packed using custom-designed cardboard inserts that keep your plants upright, cushioned, and protected throughout their journey. This ensures they arrive safe, secure, and in perfect condition, ready to bring a touch of the tropics to your home.
We’re proud to offer sustainable packaging solutions that protect both your plants and the environment — because green should always mean eco-friendly too.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will my plant arrive healthy and alive?
Yes! Every plant is hand-selected and carefully packed to arrive healthy. If your plant arrives damaged or in poor condition, contact us within 48 hours with a picture, and we’ll replace or refund it — no worries.
How are the plants packaged for shipping?
We use custom, eco-friendly boxes that keep your plant snug and protected. Each pot is wrapped to prevent soil spillage, and leaves are cushioned for a safe trip.
How long will shipping take?
We ship orders within 12 hours on working days. Delivery usually takes [1-2 days] depending on your location. You’ll get a tracking number once your plant ships.
What if my plant dies soon after arrival?
We offer a 30 day healthy plant guarantee. If your plant doesn’t make it despite proper care, send us a photo within that time and we’ll make it right.
Do you ship in cold or hot weather?
Yes, with care! During cold months we use heat packs and insulation; in hot months, we use breathable packaging. If the weather is extreme, we may delay shipping to protect your plant.
Unpacking & First Care
What should I do when my plant arrives?
Unpack it as soon as possible! Remove all wrapping carefully, check the soil moisture, and place the plant in bright, indirect light to help it settle after its journey.
My plant looks a bit droopy after shipping — is that normal?
Yes! Plants can experience mild stress from travel. Give it 2–3 days in gentle light, avoid repotting immediately, and water lightly if the soil is dry. Most plants perk up quickly.
Should I water my plant right after it arrives?
Check the soil first. If it feels dry an inch below the surface, water lightly. If it’s still moist, wait a few days before watering again — overwatering too soon can cause stress.
What if there’s some soil out of the pot or a broken leaf?
Minor soil displacement or leaf damage can happen during transit — it’s normal and doesn’t harm the plant’s health. Gently remove any broken leaves and give the plant a few days to recover.
Can I repot my new plant right away?
It’s best to wait about 2–4 weeks before repotting. This gives the plant time to adjust to its new environment. When ready, use fresh, well-draining soil and a pot with drainage holes.
What’s the best spot to put my new plant?
Most plants prefer bright, indirect light — near a window but not in direct sun. Avoid placing it next to heating vents, air conditioners, or drafty doors.
Houseplant Care Questions
How often should I water my houseplants?
It depends on the type of plant and your home environment. Most prefer the top inch of soil to dry out before watering again. Always check the soil — it’s better to underwater than overwater.
How much light do indoor plants need?
Every plant has its preference:
- Low light: ZZ plant, snake plant, pothos.
- Medium light: Peace lily, philodendron, rubber plant.
- Bright/indirect: Monstera, fiddle leaf fig, succulents.
Avoid harsh midday sun unless your plant is sun-loving.
Why are my plant’s leaves turning yellow or brown?
Yellow leaves = usually overwatering.
Brown tips = often low humidity or too much direct light.
Trim damaged leaves and adjust watering or placement — your plant will bounce back.
Do I need to fertilize my houseplants?
Yes! Feed them once a month during the growing season (spring–summer) with a diluted houseplant fertilizer. Skip feeding in fall and winter when plants rest.
Are your plants pet-safe?
Many of our plants are pet-friendly, but some can be toxic if ingested. Check each product description for safety information before purchasing if you have pets or young children.
When should I repot my plant?
If roots are growing through the drainage holes or the plant dries out quickly after watering, it’s time. Move it to a pot about 1–2 inches wider with fresh soil.
I’m new to plant care — can you help me?
Of course! Every order comes with a simple care guide. You can also explore our Plant Care Library or message our team — we love helping new plant parents succeed.
How do I prevent pests like gnats or mites?
Inspect your plants regularly, avoid overwatering, and wipe leaves with a damp cloth. If pests appear, isolate the plant and treat with a mild soap solution or natural insecticide.
