How to Water dragon tree?

Dragon tree thrives in arid environments, exhibiting a remarkable drought tolerance that suits its native habitat's sporadic rainfall. This species maintains a delicate balance, preferring infrequent watering to mimic the dry conditions it is accustomed to. As such, dragon tree should be watered once every two weeks to sustain its health without over-saturating the soil. Typically grown indoors due to its air-purifying qualities, dragon tree benefits from being placed in well-draining soil within containers that support its moderate growth cycles and mitigate root rot.
