Product description
The Dracaena Deremensis ‘Malaika’ is a beautifully vibrant and incredibly hardy structural plant. It grows an upright cane topped with a dense rosette of dark green leaves that are heavily striped with bright white or cream accents.
This plant prefers partial sun and benefits greatly from being watered with filtered water to prevent brown, crispy leaf tips. Pot it in a loose, well-draining houseplant mix and water it biweekly, ensuring the top half of the soil is dry before watering again.
Please Note: When purchasing plants please consider that each live item is unique and may therefore differ from the images shown, which are for illustration purposes only. Depending on season, some plants may be pruned back to encourage growth and deciduous plants may arrive without leaves.
House Plant Size Guide

House plants come in a wide array of shapes and sizes depending on the variety and maturity of the plant.
6cm/12cm/15cm/19cm/23cm nursery pots are the most common size of pot that they are sold in. This measurement is the diameter at the top of the pot.
12cm potted plants are the most popular providing great value for money and an instant impact. Larger plants that come in pots of 20cm+ are great for making a statement in any room and can represent years of growth to get to that level of maturity and size.
