What is the best soil for Dracaena?

Soil mix. A Dracaena likes a rich, somewhat chunky soil mix that drains well. You don't want the roots to stay too wet otherwise they'll rot out. My plant was growing in a mix that contained quite of bit of lava rock.

How do you repot a dragon tree?

To repot first get yourself a new pot that is 1 -3 inches bigger in width than the current pot. Lean the pot on its side holding the plants stem carefully and try to ease the plant out. You may need to tap the bottom or press and squeeze the sides of the pot to encourage the plant to come out (only plastic pots).
