An evergreen shrub in the genus Dracaena. This is a medium-sized variegated cultivar of Dracaena fragrans which is native to southern Africa. The plant height can reach more than 1m. Stem erect, with few branches. Leaves linear, often tufted at the top; green or light green thin lines occurring in the center of the leaf, and the both sides are bright yellow to yellow-green. Panicles, flowers white, small and scented.
生長強健,半日照環境較適宜。於室內無日照處,僅靠人工照明亦能生存,但葉緣的斑紋會較綠。喜高溫、高濕,耐旱,土全乾後再徹底澆水。以扦插法繁殖。
This robust plant thrives in partial sun conditions and can grow with artificial lighting only but the markings on the leaf margin will be greener. A lover of heat and high humidity. Drought-tolerant, water thoroughly when the soil completely dries. Propagated from cuttings.
葉色明亮美麗,適合於遮蔭地的庭園內作為色彩植物。室內使用主要是作盆栽或組合盆栽。枝葉是良好的插花材料。
Valued for the brightly-colored foliage, it’s suitable for the use as an accent plant in garden shades; or used as a houseplant grown in pots and mixed planters. The branches and leaves are great flower arrangement materials.
