Dracaena fragrans 'Ulises'

Dracaena fragrans 'Ulises' is a cool-toned striped cane Dracaena with glossy green leaves marked by fine white to silvery lines. The leaves are narrow and lance-shaped, forming neat heads at the tips of slender woody canes.

Indoor plants are often grown with several canes at different heights, creating a tiered outline with foliage held above a visible stem base. As the plant matures, older leaves gradually clear from the lower stems and reveal the ringed cane beneath.

Fine silver striping on narrow leaves

  • Foliage: Narrow green leaves with fine white to silvery stripes running along the blade.
  • Stem habit: Woody cane growth with leaf clusters produced near active stem tips.
  • Mature form: Lower leaves age away slowly, exposing more cane as height develops.
  • Layered shape: Multi-cane plants create layered foliage at different heights.

Cane growth from a tropical African species

Dracaena fragrans is native to Tropical Africa, where it grows as a shrub or small tree. The cultivated cane forms used indoors keep the same basic growth pattern: woody stems carry active leaf heads, while roots prefer warmth, air and measured moisture.

Cool striped foliage, slender canes and tiered leaf heads define this cultivar indoors. As the plant settles into a bright filtered position, new leaves continue from the cane tips while older lower leaves gradually reveal the ringed stems beneath.

Care for slender striped canes

  • Light: Give bright indirect to moderate filtered light. Strong direct sun can scorch pale striping, especially after shipping.
  • Watering: Water after the upper 50–70% of the mix has dried, then drain thoroughly before returning the plant to its cover pot.
  • Substrate: Use an airy indoor mix with bark, pumice, perlite or similar mineral material to keep oxygen around the roots.
  • Temperature: Maintain 18–27 °C and keep the canes away from cold draughts, chilled floors and wet winter compost.
  • Leaf surface: Clean the narrow blades occasionally so dust does not dull the fine striping.
  • Nutrition: Feed lightly in spring and summer, then reduce fertiliser when growth slows in lower seasonal light.
  • Repotting: Repot when roots are crowded or the stems become top-heavy, using a stable container with drainage.
  • Height control: Long canes can be cut back during active growth; healthy stems may reshoot from nodes below the cut.

Early checks for 'Ulises'

  • Sudden leaf drop: Check for cold exposure, wet roots or a sharp drop in light after moving the plant.
  • Brown tips: Review water quality, dry heated air, fertiliser build-up and inconsistent watering.
  • Dull striping: Wipe the leaves and move the plant into brighter filtered light if the pattern looks muted.
  • Soft lower cane: Inspect the stem base and roots if the potting mix has stayed damp for several days.
  • Scale or mealybugs: Look along cane nodes and leaf bases, where pests can settle before leaf damage is obvious.

Placement away from pets

Dracaena fragrans 'Ulises' should be positioned away from cats and dogs that chew foliage. Ingested Dracaena leaves can cause digestive symptoms, so fallen leaves and pruned cane sections should be removed after maintenance.

Botanical name and etymology

Dracaena fragrans belongs to Asparagaceae. The genus name Dracaena is linked to Greek drakaina, meaning female dragon, and the species epithet fragrans refers to scented flowers produced by the species under suitable conditions. The cultivar name 'Ulises' identifies this fine-striped cane form.

Dracaena fragrans 'Ulises' has cool silver-green striping, slim canes and tiered foliage.

It's a (smaller) soccer ball with nylon straps. Will no last long for aggressive chewers.
Color: Black Green, Size: 8 Inch
As the item title states, it's a soccer ball with straps. It feels like a soccer ball, but smaller and doesn't make any noises. The 8 inch size just right for my 50 lb dog. He can't get his mouth around the ball, but can bite down on the straps as we kick it around. He also plays and tosses it around by himself. It's also easy to clean. It's a good item, but suffers from two issues. 01) The nylon straps are tough, but not as durable as I though. My dog is aggressive chewer and has managed to chew them up a bit. 02) There is a nylon strap that is longer than all the others, so he tends to focus on that one. After about 15 days of playing with hit, he's managed to chew that strap up to the point that it's almost falling off. It would be nice if all the straps were the same, larger, size.

Highly recommend
Color: Black Green, Size: 8 Inch
I was skeptical that it would hold up to our aggressive chewer puppy (staffyX) - especially during teething. But it has survived past teething into adult chompers and is still fantastic! Its his favorite outside toy, especially the tags make it fun (and those have been holding up well too). If/when it fails, I'll buy another one.

great design, poor overall quality
Color: Black Green, Size: 8 Inch
My dog loves these balls. The "tags" are a great design. The problem I have is the quality as they aren't tough enough. He goes through them pretty quickly tearing off the tags and puncturing the ball. He doesn't get that these actually cost money! Each one also comes with a small pump, which I guess is great for a one time buy?, but man, if you don't own a pump just buy one and keep one. I have no use for several of these cheap pumps. How about offering the pump as an add-on for a dollar or two?

Ummmm🙄 not indestructible!
Color: Yellow Green, Size: 6 Inch, Color: Yellow Green, Size: 6 Inch
I have a Aussie doodle ( 1 1/2 yr old) so I decided to get her this one for Christmas and she loved it (she plays soccer with my grandkids-so I thought it would be a perfect gift and the colors are so cool green and yellow) however ..if your dog is like mine, she busted it within two days first tried chewing off the handles so I decided to cut the rest of them off-then proceeded to tear one of the pentagons entirely off and finally completely busted it… which made her very happy, but I was very sad!! If your dog is not a chewer and does not stop until she tears it apart, especially if it has some kind of noise maker which this does not-it’s a great ball and really well made! She loved it from the minute she got it played with it-wouldn’t let us take it away from her! It is made and looks like a real soccer ball. So I will have to keep searching for an indestructible soccer ball🙄😁

My dog loves this.
Color: Black Green, Size: 6 Inch, Color: Black Green, Size: 6 Inch
I have a large Cane Corso who could obviously shred this but, she loves it. This ball is holding up really well. We use it for outside play and she loves batting it around and swinging it from the loops.
