Corn Plant 'Massangeana`'
Highly popular, Dracaena fragrans ‘Massangeana’ (Corn Plant) is a strongly upright, evergreen shrub with a stout tan stem topped by a rosette of long, sword-shaped leaves. Narrow and arching, the shiny leaves are striped with golden-yellow down their center. The plant tends to drop its lower leaves, exposing its stem as it ages. Colorful, this succulent shrub is commonly used as a houseplant as it tolerates interior conditions very well. It is also listed by NASA as an excellent plant for removing harmful chemicals from the air. Easy to grow, it is a wonderful plant to brighten up the home.
