SCIENTIFIC NAME: Dracaena goldieana

KNOWN AS: Green Zebra Plant, Queen of Dracaenas, Zebra Striped Dragon Tree

CLIMATE (LOCATION): Central Africa (Nigeria, Zaire) | Tropical Rainforest

DESCRIPTION: While most Dracaenas have long, strap-like leaves, the Green Zebra (D. goldieana) is a stunning outlier. It features broad, oval leaves that come to a sharp point, characterized by a unique horizontal banding pattern. The dark forest-green leaves are "painted" with irregular, silver-grey to pale-green cross-bands, resembling a zebra's stripes or a snake's skin. It is a slow-growing, highly ornamental species that is considered a "trophy plant" among Dracaena collectors.
