Dracena fragrans: Classification, Distribution, Characteristics, Use and Management
Corn plant, or Dracaena fragrans, is a popular, hardy, and easy-to-grow indoor houseplant. Although it can grow up to 20 feet tall in its natural habitat, it is more commonly seen as a container plant in the United States in the 4-6 foot range. Rosettes of evergreen, parallel-veined, sword-shaped, bright green leaves normally grow to 2′ long and 3″ broad in containers but can grow to 3′ long in the open. Plants lose their lower leaves over time, exposing bare stems. In terminal panicles, fragrant, small white-yellow flowers with spherical heads appear. Red berries may appear after the flowers.
