Plant description
An eye-catching houseplant known for its colourful, arching foliage. This slowly growing, upright shrub bears dramatic sword-shaped leaves up to 60cm (24in) long featuring a trio of grey-green, white, and minty hues, creating a striking striped effect. Versatile in its light requirements, 'Warneckii' thrives anywhere from bright, indirect light to artificially lit office settings, developing tiered heads of foliage over time. Place in a brighter spot for more shimmering silver, or a darker spot for a more pronounced contrast in the leaves.

How to care for Dracaena fragrans (Deremensis Group) Warneckei:
Water well, applying a liquid houseplant fertiliser, in the growing season, but less so in winter (allowing the top few cms of compost to dry out). Misting the leaves will help keep the humidity levels high, and keep the leaves dust-free and shiny. Repot in spring every couple of years and keep temperatures above 10°C in winter.
