The Dracéna brings a tropical touch with its large leaves and its look of a fake palm tree. The White Surprise variety is differentiated by its coloring. Indeed, its elongated leaves, in a rosette, are dark green on the edge and lime green in the center. We love it for the white line that is sometimes found on its foliage. Its growth is slow, but it can reach up to 3 m in height. Although it tolerates subdued light, it is recommended to place it in bright indirect light to promote its growth and shine. Also, it is preferable to reduce its frequency of repotting, because it likes to be cramped in its pot.
Attention, risk of toxicity in case of ingestion and irritation in contact with skin or eyes!
