Black Knight Dragon Tree
Botanical Name: Dracaena marginata 'Black Knight'
Family: Asparagaceae
Origin: Madagascar
Plant Type: Evergreen small tree / architectural feature plant
Overview
Bold, dramatic and effortlessly stylish, Dracaena marginata 'Black Knight' is one of the most architecturally striking plants you can add to an Adelaide garden or outdoor space. Its slender, upright stems are crowned with tufts of long, strap-like leaves in deep dark green with rich red-purple margins — a combination that deepens and intensifies with sun exposure, creating a genuinely dark, moody effect unlike anything else in the landscape.
Slow-growing and low-maintenance, 'Black Knight' thrives in Adelaide's warm seasons and makes an outstanding feature in sheltered courtyards, alfresco areas and large containers. It copes with Adelaide's mild winters but appreciates protection from frost and cold winds. Indoors or out, this is a plant that commands attention without demanding much in return.
Key Features
- Mature Size: 2.0–3.0 m H × 0.5–1.0 m W outdoors (1.0–1.5 m in containers); spreading vase form with age as stems branch
- Growth Rate: Slow — 10–20 cm per year; easy to maintain at desired height
- Foliage: Long, narrow strap-like leaves; dark green when young, deepening to dark purple-red with age and sun exposure; foliage colour intensifies in brighter light; evergreen year-round
- Flowers: Rarely flowers outdoors in Adelaide; when it does, small creamy-white fragrant flowers appear in summer; followed by yellow-orange berries
- Fragrance: Flowers lightly fragrant when produced; foliage not fragrant
- Seasonal Interest: Dramatic dark foliage year-round → stems branch and spread with age creating sculptural multi-stemmed form → occasional summer flowers in warm established specimens
- Wildlife Value: Flowers attract bees and pollinators when produced; dense foliage provides shelter for small garden fauna
- Tolerance: Drought-tolerant once established; heat-tolerant; coastal-tolerant; frost-sensitive — protect from frost and temperatures below 5°C; shelter from strong or cold winds; tolerates part shade; dislikes waterlogged soils and fluoride-rich water
- Planting Density: Plant as a single specimen or in groups of 3 at 60–80 cm spacing for a dramatic foliage cluster; ideal in large containers (40 cm+)
- Pet Friendly: Toxic to cats and dogs if ingested — keep away from pets
Where It Works Best
- Sunlight: Full sun to part shade; full sun deepens the dark purple-red foliage colour; tolerates bright indirect light indoors
- Soil: Free-draining sandy or loamy soils; excellent drainage is essential — will not tolerate wet feet; use a quality potting mix with added perlite or coarse sand for container growing
- Water Needs: Establishment: water regularly for first 8–12 weeks. Established: deep soak every 2–3 weeks in summer; allow soil to dry out between waterings; reduce significantly in cooler months
- Maintenance: Minimal pruning needed — remove yellowing or damaged leaves; prune stems in spring to encourage branching and a fuller habit; feed with a balanced liquid fertiliser every 4–6 weeks in spring and summer; avoid high-fluoride water and superphosphate fertilisers
- Lifespan: Very long-lived; decades with correct care and drainage
- Climate Zones: Best in warm, sheltered positions — coastal Adelaide, northern suburbs and protected courtyards; grow in containers in cooler foothills areas for easy frost protection
- Soil pH: Slightly acidic to neutral (6.0–7.0); avoid alkaline conditions
Landscape & Design Ideas
- Architectural feature plant for modern, tropical or minimalist garden designs where bold form and dark foliage create dramatic contrast
- Group three stems together in a large statement pot for alfresco areas, pool surrounds and courtyard entrances
- Pair with silver-foliaged plants such as Westringia, Artemisia or Leucophyta to maximise the dark foliage contrast
- Use as a vertical accent to break up horizontal planting schemes in garden beds and mixed borders
- Outstanding indoor specimen for well-lit living spaces, offices and atriums — brings the drama of the garden inside
Why You Will Love It
'Black Knight' is the rare plant that looks incredible doing absolutely nothing. The deep, almost-black foliage is genuinely unlike anything else in the garden, and the slow, sculptural growth means it just keeps getting better with age. Low-fuss, high-impact and effortlessly bold — it's the plant for gardeners who want drama without the drama.

A step up, but still room for improvement
Color: Cream Khaki (Pu Leather Seat)
Yikes, the *shilling* on the reviews for this thing! Yes, it's a chair. There are a lot of mesh-backed office chairs for sale here. None of them are likely to change your life.
I can say this chair is a step up in quality from the few others I've purchased online in the past. All hardware below the seat cushion is heavy steel; you won't be breaking this stuff in the near future--and it's a nice change from the almost-entirely-plastic offerings I see elsewhere.
The provided hardware was packaged intelligently: it's all screws (and not too many of them) with various lengths, but they all have the same size hex-head and the package includes a nice matching T-bar to install them; moreover, if you follow the instructions it's basically "use the screws labelled Step 1 now" then "use the screws labelled Step 2 now"--hard to get wrong.
The best part of the chair is the lumbar support. It's why I selected this particular variant, and it was a good choice: it's firm and adjustable and makes a difference. The back is comfortable, and the general motion of the chair (rocking, locking, up/down, swivel, roll) is exactly as you'd expect.
I don't like arms on my chairs: when they're down I rest my elbows there but they're always too high so it bothers my shoulders eventually, and when they're up my elbows bump into them. So I usually remove the arms entirely during assembly--and in this chair that wasn't too hard, but it does leave some slightly unsightly connection points hanging free. That's not a mark against the chair itself--just letting you know; at worst I could point out that this chair's arm movement is maybe a little more limited than usual.
The worst thing about this chair, though, is the cushion. I got the leatherette seat, because it's supposed to be comfortable and easy to clean. In practice it's *not* comfortable at all: it's soft enough, sure, but it's also *very* hot and makes me squirm repeatedly to try to improve my comfort the longer I sit here. I suggest getting the mesh-bottom version, if you're going to get this model.

Ergonomic Desk Chair
Color: Nori Black (Pu Leather Seat), Color: Nori Black (Pu Leather Seat)
I am delighted with this chair. First of all, assembly was super easy, thanks to the instructions included in the box. The faux leather design combined with the mesh backrest gives it an elegant look while ensuring comfort. I love its size, it is substantial enough to feel supportive, yet not so bulky that it takes up too much space; this allows it to fit perfectly under my desk and helps me save room. The lumbar support makes it comfortable to work at my desk for hours on end, and I really appreciate that the armrests can be easily raised and lowered. It is incredibly comfortable and durable.

Definitely happy with this purchase!
Color: Nori Black (Pu Leather Seat), Color: Nori Black (Pu Leather Seat)
I’m really impressed with the MUXX.STIL Office Chair. I wanted something comfortable for long work days but also stylish enough to fit nicely into my space, and this chair ended up being exactly what I was looking for.
The PU leather looks sleek and elegant, and the chair feels much more premium than I expected. It’s comfortable even after sitting for hours, with great back support and a soft cushion that doesn’t flatten out quickly. I also love how smoothly it rolls and adjusts.
As someone who spends a lot of time working, editing content, and answering messages at my desk, having a comfortable chair truly makes a difference — and this one does. It made my workspace feel more put together and cozy at the same time. Definitely happy with this purchase!

Nice-ish chair but not what I expected.
Color: Grey
Nice chair basically, good looking, and assembly went well, the wheels roll very nicely, lumbar support is good too, with comfy seat back. However, the "seat cushion" design itself is very odd, because the seat cushion is much thicker at the rear than it is at the front, thus you're constantly slipping off forward, always needing repeatedly to lift up and get back on the seat up further where you belong; while the seat tilt adjustments are of no help with this problem, no matter what setting you will be slipping off forward. The lever for adjusting reclining ability is very cumbersome and awkward to use. The arm rests are ok, comfy, but lack the ability to raise or lower, all you can do if flip it up totally out of your way. I wish I could return and exchange this chair for something better but there is no way this could easily be disassembled and returned in the box that is long since gone. This came in a box really super efficiently and very tightly packed, give them credit and kudos for the great packing design. Maybe, hopefully, the manufacturer has some suggestions for replacement when they see this review.

Surprisingly Comfortable for Long Hours
I was honestly expecting one of those oversized chairs that look comfortable in pictures but feel cheap in person. This one actually feels solid. The seat is wide without feeling awkward, and the cushion is thick enough that I don’t feel the frame underneath after sitting for a while.
The armrests being adjustable was a bigger deal than I thought, especially for working at a desk for hours. It also rolls much smoother and quieter than my old office chair.
Assembly took some time, but nothing complicated. Once put together, it feels sturdy and doesn’t wobble. The reclining function is nice too when taking breaks or watching videos.
Overall it feels more “heavy duty” than most chairs in this price range.
