Dracaena is a genus of slow-growing, woody-stemmed, evergreen trees and shrubs native to tropical regions of Africa and Madagascar. They are commonly grown as ornamental plants, both indoors and outdoors, and are valued for their attractive leaves and ease of care. There are many different species and varieties of Dracaena, with leaves that come in shades of green, yellow, or red, and are often striped or margined with other colors. Dracaena prefers bright, indirect light and well-drained soil, and is usually grown in shaded or partially shaded areas. It is also a popular houseplant, able to tolerate low light levels and infrequent watering. Pruning is not necessary for Dracaena, but can be done to control its size or maintain its shape. With proper care, Dracaena can thrive and provide a lush, attractive display of foliage.
