Description
Dracaena fragrans 'Burley', also known as the Corn Palm or Mass Cane Plant, features striking variegated leaves with a broad gold-green stripe down the centre, bordered by deep green edges. This eye-catching pattern adds a touch of elegance to indoor spaces, making 'Burley' a popular choice for homes and offices. Its upright growth and compact form make it perfect for pots, where it can brighten rooms and bring a natural, tropical feel. It thrives in shaded or low-light conditions, well-suited for bright, indirect light indoors.
For best results, plant in well-drained potting soil and water moderately, allowing the topsoil to dry between waterings. In Makuru (winter), reduce watering as growth slows. To encourage healthy, vibrant foliage, feed with a balanced liquid fertiliser during Djilba (early spring). This low-maintenance plant adds greenery and texture indoors, bringing tropical charm with minimal effort.
