Madagascar Dragon (Dracaena Marginata)

A cousin to the Dracaena plant, meaning dragon, this houseplant is a natural style-slayer. With stems that sprout long, thin green leaves with bands of red at the top, it will start to take on a tree shape over time. It’s potted in a neutral-toned planter. Plant Perk: It will produce a red liquid when cut or damaged, giving it an “it’s alive” quality.
