Always glad to help.
I pretty much agree with Plantladylin. Dracaena don't particularly like "heavy" soil. Also they don't like wet feet. Water, dry down to barely moist, then water again. Get an inexpensive moisture meter. Dracaena hate fluoride. Our well water here in Florida is sometimes loaded with it. As is some fertilizers with phosphate or super phosphate. Also check your tap water. Oh, one more thing about moisture meters. On the chilly days of a Florida winter and the hot days of our summers the air conditioner will be blowing and the air will be going out and hitting walls and closed doors. Plants next to them take the brunt of it.
Welcome to the beautiful state of Florida.
