CloseWith narrow, pointy, red-edged leaves, this Red-edged Dragon Tree is much scrappier looking than its broader leafed relatives such as 'Lemon Lime' or 'White Jewel.' New growth stands upright, reminiscent of a mohawk haircut or cock's comb, while the older leaves drape downward. A profusion of up to 15" long leaves surround and hide the central stalk, and will eventually fall off at the bottom. Dracaenas tend to lean toward the light, and variegation is more pronounced in better lighting, but keep these beauties out of direct sunlight.
