How to fertilize Drácena Kiwi
Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Drácena Kiwi after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

Not a happy Ti About half of the leaves have begun to turn brown and incredibly dry and crispy. I’ve been following the directions for watering. This guy doesn’t get any direct sunlight. Is that the problem maybe?

Is my plant dying ? Hi Everyone! I’m extremely new to keeping plants and I recently got this beautiful Cordyline fruticosa (pink diamond) only two weeks ago and it has little yellow spots, yellowing on the end of the leafs and random holes. If anyone can tell me how to fix it it would be greatly helpful. #TiPlant #Cordyline #TheThread #help

Not sure what happened #CabbageTree Can he be salvaged? #outdoorgrowing

My Ti plant is always unhappy #TiPlant I gothic plant front soon because he was having trouble with it. I brought it home and over the winter I nursed it back to health, it spent one summer living outside on the porch and it did ok- not much growth. We had an unexpected night around 40 degrees in early fall and even though I immediately brought it inside and have kept it inside ever since, 2 stalks leaves died completely. One stalk shriveled. Now I’m babying it inside, fertilizing, controlling the temp at 70 degrees but she’s still struggling. Any advice?

I just got four of these little guys at Smith’s for a dollar! And I love them, but I’m wondering if I should be transplanting them right now into a larger pot ? I’ve never cared for these before. #CabbageTree
