Song of India
Song of India, scientifically known as Dracaena surculosa, is a striking and elegant indoor plant valued for its distinctive, variegated foliage. Native to tropical regions of Africa and the Indian Ocean, this plant is renowned for its narrow, arching leaves that display a beautiful blend of green and yellow or cream stripes. Song of India typically grows to about 3 to 6 feet in height, making it a popular choice for adding a touch of exotic charm to indoor spaces. It thrives in well-draining soil and prefers bright, indirect light, although it can tolerate lower light conditions. Regular watering is essential, but the soil should be allowed to dry slightly between waterings to prevent root rot. With its dramatic appearance and low-maintenance requirements, Song of India makes an excellent addition to homes, offices, and commercial spaces.
