Rhaphidophora Decursiva - Dragon Tail Plant

Rhaphidophora decursiva is a stunning easy-to-grow plant with dark green, glossy leaves. The juvenile version has entire leaves while newer leaves emerge with slits as the plant matures. In its full form, the leaves can have numerous thin slits along each side, appearing almost like a palm.

Light: Like many houseplants, Rhaphidophora Decursiva  grows best in bright indirect light. You can add supplemental grow lights to help the plant if you don’t have great light in your home. However, too much direct sun with burn the plant’s leaves.

Water: You can water your decursiva when the top few inches of soil dries out. It generally means weekly in the spring and summer and every 10-14 days in the fall and winter. If you have your plant outside for the summer in very hot conditions, you might need to water it every few days.
