Dracaena fragrans 'Lemon Lime'

Dracaena fragrans 'Lemon Lime' is a striped cane-form Dracaena with long, sword-shaped leaves marked in lime green, cream, yellow-green and deeper green. The colour sits in clean lengthwise bands, giving the plant a bright, graphic look on a naturally upright woody stem.

As the plant matures, older lower leaves gradually shed and reveal a ringed cane with foliage held near the top. Mature stems may branch from active nodes, creating several leafy heads while keeping the plant’s outline tall and tidy indoors.

Lime-striped foliage on woody canes

  • Foliage: Long, glossy leaves with cream, lime and deep green striping along the blade.
  • Growth habit: Cane-forming woody perennial with foliage clustered near the stem tips.
  • Mature shape: Slowly develops visible stems as older leaves age away from the lower cane.
  • Indoor effect: Brings fresh colour and vertical height in a relatively narrow footprint.

Stem growth and leaf renewal

Dracaena fragrans is a tropical African species in Asparagaceae, growing as a shrub or small tree in its native range. 'Lemon Lime' belongs to the striped Dracaena fragrans group; older references may still use Dracaena deremensis for these forms.

The cane is the plant’s structural centre. New leaves emerge from active tips, while older leaves gradually dry and drop as the stem lengthens. This slow reveal of the cane is part of normal growth when the newest leaves remain firm, upright and well coloured.

Care for bright cane growth

  • Light: Place in bright to moderate filtered light. Shield the pale bands from harsh midday sun, which can leave dry marks.
  • Watering: Let the upper half to two-thirds of the mix dry before watering thoroughly and emptying any standing water.
  • Root zone: Use a free-draining indoor mix with bark, pumice, perlite or similar mineral material for steady aeration.
  • Warmth: Keep around 18–27 °C and protect the pot from cold draughts, especially after watering.
  • Leaf care: Wipe dust from the long blades so the striped surface stays clean and well lit.
  • Feeding: Feed lightly during active growth. Salt build-up and heavy fertiliser can show quickly on pale leaf tissue.
  • Repotting: Move up only when roots have filled the pot, using a container that drains freely and holds the cane securely.
  • Pruning: Tall canes can be shortened in warm growing conditions; healthy nodes below the cut may push new shoots.

Symptoms to check on striped Dracaena

  • Brown tips: Review water quality, dry heat, fertiliser strength and irregular watering before trimming the damaged edges.
  • Fast yellowing: Check drainage and root moisture if several leaves yellow together, especially in lower light.
  • Soft cane base: Inspect the lower stem and roots after repeated wet conditions or a cold, damp spell.
  • Dry pale patches: Move the plant back from intense sun if the lightest bands become tan or papery.
  • Hidden pests: Look along leaf bases and cane joints for scale, mealybugs or fine webbing before damage spreads.

Pet and household safety

Dracaena fragrans 'Lemon Lime' contains saponins that can upset cats and dogs if the leaves are eaten. Place the plant away from chewing pets and clear away trimmed or fallen foliage.

Botanical name and etymology

The genus name Dracaena comes from Greek drakaina, meaning female dragon, a reference connected with dragon-tree resin in the wider genus. The species epithet fragrans means fragrant and refers to the scented flowers, which are uncommon on indoor plants. Older references may still use Dracaena deremensis for striped forms in this group.

Dracaena fragrans 'Lemon Lime' has bright lime-striped foliage, long leaves and upright cane growth.

Poor formatting for Kindle, GREAT as a hardback
Format: Kindle
So far I am loving this book, and hating its formatting for the Kindle. Probably because of all the maps and illustrations, it is hard to enjoy on my Kindle, and I have to awkwardly change the size of the page 3-4 times on every page while I try to read it. My guess is I would really love it as a physical book. LATER: As noted I was very disappointed trying to read this on a small Kindle, but the book looked so promising that I repurchased it in hardback. WOW what a difference. Wonderful illustrations, maps, the works. Given the number of important battles chosen, it would not be possible to go into great detail on any single one, but most people are not going to remember all those details anyway, and this book gives you what you really need, and the level of detail you are likely to remember and to help you appreciate the importance of the event. Strongly recommended in hardback.

Great book, the battle descriptions should've been more detailed
Format: Hardcover
The book looks great, both the dust jacket and the book cover are printed with the cover image. The dust jacket is textured with a matte finish and shiny silver text, while the book cover looks exactly like the front cover image provided here on Amazon (with a glossy finish). In my opinion, the dust jacket looks better. The book itself looks great. The texts are a bit too short for my taste though, as I would've like to read more detailed descriptions of each battle. Read the sample of the Battle of Marathon that's provided here. It will give you a good idea of the level of detail provided for each battle. Also, some of the battles that didn't get the full 2 page treatment were, in my opinion, significant and were deserving of getting it (Battle of Kadesh for example), while some less significant battles did get it, oddly enough. All in all, I'd definitely recommend the book, but it does have a few shortcomings mentioned above. PS. Also, Amazon, please work on your packaging. Add a few of those (styro)foam pieces with the book or something. My book did arrive mostly ok, and mostly unscathed, but when I picked up the package, the book was moving freely inside the banged up package. I'd say I got lucky it didn't get damaged too badly (apart from a few minor impact traces -- I'd say condition it arrived in was 9/10).

Very good book with a few minor flaws
Format: Hardcover
As most books published under the DK banner, this is a visually excellent book that is a pleasure to look at. It is well written and chock-full of outstanding illustrations and maps. I do have a few minor "ding" though. First, I think that the book should have included a "why" the battle changed history. While in most cases, this rationale is included in the text, in a few cases one has to wonder "why" this battle was important; for example, they chose the World War I battle of Verdun, but they also said that the battle was "inconclusive"; if so, how did it change history? Second, I have to question the choice of some of the battles. For example, the editors list "Arnhem", which ended up as a costly allied failure, but fail to mention the wildly successful Soviet "Operation Bagration", which destroyed the German Army Group Center. Third, there were some minor factual inaccuracies. The battles of Passchendaele and Dunkirk were both shown on a map as being located in Northern Italy instead of northern France, while Operation Overlord, the Allied invasion of France, was shown on a map as being more at Pas de Calais vice the beaches of Normandy. In spite of these nits, this is a good book worthy of belonging in you library. Four stars.
