Dracaena fragrans 'Burley' – Corn Plant with Bold Central Stripe

Dracaena fragrans 'Burley' is a cultivar of Dracaena fragrans (L.) Ker Gawl., prized for its strong, contrasting foliage. This slow-growing shrub is often multi-stemmed at the base, producing cane-like stems topped with rosettes of broad, arching leaves. The foliage is deep glossy green, dramatically highlighted by a central stripe of bright yellow-green, giving the plant a vibrant, tropical look. With age, the lower leaves naturally drop away, revealing ringed trunks and a tree-like silhouette.

Why Dracaena 'Burley' Stands Out

  • Foliage: Wide, arching leaves with a bold, light-green to yellow central stripe.
  • Growth Habit: Multi-stemmed cane plant, maturing into a tree-like form.
  • Size: Indoors commonly 1 – 1.5 m tall; can grow taller in conservatories.
  • Decorative Value: Brings a strong color accent to homes and offices.

Natural Background

Dracaena fragrans is native to tropical Africa, where it grows as a small understory tree. In cultivation it is often called the “corn plant” for its resemblance to maize (Zea mays) stalks. Cultivars such as 'Burley' were bred for their striking foliage patterns and adaptability, making them long-lived favorites for indoor planting schemes.

Care Guide for Dracaena 'Burley'

  • Light: Prefers bright, indirect light; adapts to moderate conditions but the central stripe is strongest with more light.
  • Watering: Water thoroughly when the top few centimeters of soil have dried; avoid overwatering.
  • Soil: Use a well-draining, organic-rich potting mix.
  • Temperature: Ideal range is 18 – 27 °C; protect from prolonged cold below 12 °C.
  • Humidity: Tolerates normal indoor humidity but benefits from occasional misting.
  • Fertilizer: Apply diluted liquid fertilizer once a month during spring and summer.

Points to Keep in Mind

  • Leaf Browning: Can result from dry air, inconsistent watering, or fluoride sensitivity.
  • Natural Shedding: Lower leaves yellow and fall as the plant matures, exposing canes.
  • Pests: May attract spider mites or scale if kept in poor conditions.
  • Toxicity: Like other Dracaena, toxic to pets if ingested.

Why Choose Dracaena 'Burley'

Dracaena 'Burley' offers the toughness and longevity of classic corn plants with a bold, striped foliage pattern. Its broad leaves and bright midline create strong visual impact, making it a favorite for design-conscious interiors, offices, and long-term indoor landscaping projects.

Etymology

The genus name Dracaena comes from the Ancient Greek δράκαινα (drakaina), meaning “female dragon,” in reference to the red resin (“dragon’s blood”) produced by some members of the group. The species epithet fragrans refers to the highly scented flowers occasionally produced on mature plants.

The world's most perfect dress pants
I have purchased several of these pairs of pants over the last few years at my job. I wear these pants every shift. They were great. They fit perfect and don't wrinkle or need ironed, that's a huge plus. I work 12 hour shifts in a hospital in a non medical role. So, these are dress pants, not work pants but they wear really well and do not show wear. I have worn other brands that have come apart. These are top of the line and the only pants I wear at my job. They are not not at all hot to wear either. Please, try a pair and I hope you love them.

Excellent Big/Tall Dress Pant
Very comfortable and stretchy pant for a big man. The fabric is breathable but not sheer or feeling like it's going to rip. The button and clasp enclosure made the waist feel extra sturdy. Plenty of stretch to tuck your shirt back in without any obnoxious grunting or groaning. The cut of the legs/thighs is generous with a slight taper towards the bottom cuff. You don't even need to hike them up to sit down comfortably. The pockets are deep enough for any phone or wallet. This is an excellent budget option for guys who don't go to many formal events but still want to look nice.
