Why are the edges of my Dracaena concinna leaves turning red?
Reddish edges often indicate the plant is receiving adequate light, possibly with some direct sun exposure, which is a desirable trait for this species.
Dracaena concinna, a succulent from Madagascar, features rosettes of fleshy, grey-green leaves that can develop reddish edges in bright light. It is grown for its architectural form.
