Description | The Dracaena Fragrans Compacta (Aka Dracaena Deremensis) has a thick green stem and several clumps of dense short dark green leaves. These are the ones, whose leaves are not variegated; instead of that, you get wonderfully rich and deep glossy green leaves, with deep veining, similar to Aspidistra. This is one of the varieties of Dracaena fragrans, widely used as indoor plant residential and commercial buildings in Dubai and UAE. |
