Dracaena Houseplant Blooms

Hello Judy I was wondering if you could identify this plant. I have had for about 15 years and this is only the second time it has flowered.

Kind regards,,

Jody

Hi Jody,

Your plant is a Dracaena Janet Craig. I assume the flowers look like those below.

The brown and yellow tips on your Dracaena Plant is being caused by too many chemicals in the water you are using or too much plant food. Do not feed Dracaenas during the fall and winter, do not use water that has passed through a softener, and if your household water is high in chlorine and fluoride, let it sit out over night before using it.
