About Dragon Tail:
The Dragon Tail, also commonly known as Rhaphidophora Decursiva, is native to Southeast Asia and India. They prefer to be watered when the top layer of soil is dry. These are fairly drought tolerant as they hold water in its thick, glossy leaves. The Dragon Tail prefers and moderate to high humidity, but will adapt and thrive in household humidity as long as it does not drop below 30%. The ideal temperature for the Rhaphidophora Decursiva is between 65-85 F. They should not be exposed to temperatures below 50 F. The preferred type of light is medium to bright, indirect light as they naturally grow in the understory of forests. Direct sun exposure will burn the leaves of this plant.

About Our Plants:
All plants are well established with healthy roots and multiple leaves. Our plants are all grown and maintained in our own private grow facilities in Michigan. We grow our plants in their terrariums for a minimum of 4 weeks or until there are signs of new growth. Our unique and attractive terrariums are filled with the proper substrates to keep your plant healthy with minimal care. This substrate does not need to be replaced. Due to the humidity that is created inside of our terrariums, the need for watering is reduced. The substrate is visible through the glass so monitoring dampness and root health requires little effort. Diluted, liquid, fertilizer is recommended every other month as maintenance.
