Dracaena are , drought-tolerant plants with good root systems and make great interior plants for the office or home.

They are more hardy than some of the other types of dracaena.  Sometimes they are grown as single-stemmed plants, occasionally grouped, and can even be braided together in the same pot.

The species are native to Africa, with a few in southern Asia and also in tropical Central America. We grow our Dracaena in the tropical climate of Hawaii, harnessing the perfect climate to produce top quality plants.
