Dracaena angolensis 'Rocket' – Cylindrical Snake Plant with Upright Fan Growth

Dracaena angolensis 'Rocket' (still widely sold under the older name Sansevieria cylindrica) is a cultivar of Dracaena angolensis (Welw. ex Carrière) Byng and Christenh. This rhizomatous succulent is known for its stiff, cylindrical leaves that emerge from underground rhizomes in a striking fan arrangement. Each rod-like leaf is grey-green, patterned with indistinct darker bands, and tapers to a sharp point. The 'Rocket' form is distinguished by its more upright, symmetrical fan structure, giving it a bold, architectural look compared to thinner-leaved cultivars such as 'Spaghetti'.

What Makes Dracaena 'Rocket' Distinct

  • Growth Habit: Compact, upright fans of cylindrical leaves rising from a rhizomatous base.
  • Leaf Form: Stout, rod-like leaves with ribbed surfaces and sharp tips.
  • Coloration: Grey-green leaves with subtle darker banding for a natural striped effect.
  • Collector Value: Rarer cultivar with a more structured, sculptural silhouette than standard forms.

Natural Origin

The species Dracaena angolensis is native to Angola and surrounding regions of southern Africa, where it thrives in arid, rocky habitats. Known for extreme drought tolerance, it has long been grown in cultivation under the synonym Sansevieria cylindrica. The 'Rocket' cultivar was selected for its strong, upright leaf arrangement, which enhances its visual impact in both minimalist and decorative displays.

Care Guide for Dracaena 'Rocket'

  • Light: Prefers bright, indirect light but adapts to partial sun and lower light conditions.
  • Watering: Highly drought-tolerant; water sparingly, allowing soil to dry fully between waterings.
  • Soil: Requires a very well-draining mineral-rich mix, such as cactus or succulent substrate.
  • Temperature: Best kept between 18 – 27 °C; avoid frost.
  • Feeding: Apply diluted succulent fertilizer a few times during the growing season.
  • Containers: Shallow, wide pots suit its fan-like spread and rhizomatous growth.

Considerations in Cultivation

  • Overwatering: The most common cause of decline; roots and rhizomes rot in waterlogged soil.
  • Growth Rate: Naturally slow; adds leaves gradually each year.
  • Pest Watch: Can attract mealybugs or spider mites under stress, especially in very dry air.
  • Toxicity: Like other Dracaena, toxic to pets if ingested.

Why Grow Dracaena 'Rocket'

Dracaena 'Rocket' offers a more robust, upright alternative to the slender 'Spaghetti' cultivar. Its strong fan-shaped growth and cylindrical leaves make it an excellent architectural element in plant arrangements. With minimal care needs and striking form, it is equally at home as a statement piece in modern interiors or as part of a succulent collection.

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 species. The epithet angolensis denotes its origin in Angola.

A must have in the kitchen to save counter space!

I absolutely love this food storage cart!! I was tired of putting all my breads, fruits, and veggies on my kitchen counter and just happened to have this sliver of space between my coffee table and the fridge. This storage cart fit perfectly and I like that you can move it around while cleaning or cooking. It fits more than you think and you can get creative with it (like removing food from packaging, using a basket, etc). It was really easy to put together. Materials are sturdy, not flimsy, and will probably last forever. It's super easy to clean and a great value for your money. This storage cart has saved my sanity in the kitchen!

Well designed
Size: 5 Tiers (5.1"D x 39.2"H), Color: Rustic Brown + Classic Black
Cart arrived well packaged. No damage and all parts included. Parts are all labeled with easy to remove stickers, assembly instructions clear. Assembly took about 10 minutes. Even with its narrow width, this cart is surprisingly stable. Sure, you can't sling it around but with a bit of caution it won't tip over. Casters work well and don't hang up when spinning. Ours fits nicely between the refrigerator and the wall and is used to organize and store spices. It can be rolled over to the island when cooking and everything you need is close at hand. No more multiple trips to the pantry. Quality product, well designed and good price point.

Ok, but wheels do not function well.
Size: 5 Tiers (8.7"D x 39.2"H), Color: Rustic Brown + Classic Black
Decent cart, for the price. It is reasonably well made. I got it to use as a kitchen storage cart, and it fit the size I needed perfectly. It wasn’t too hard to assemble, but I have arthritis in my hands that made using the provided Allen wrench a little challenging, and I had to take several breaks to let my hands rest. I plan to store root vegetables in it. So I love the mesh the shelves are made of. They will provide air circulation around things like onions and potatoes and still be easy to clean. I like that it has a solid shelf on the top that I can actually sit things on, rather than having the top most shelf be the top of the cart. It is just that added bit of usable space. I think the metal will hold up well with time, but I am less sure of the top ‘wood’ shelf. It isn’t hard wood, but feels like a composite. I plan to be very careful about letting any water sit on the shelf to keep from messing it up. My biggest issue and the reason I took off 2 stars is because of the poor quality off the wheels. I wanted a rolling cart, which is why I purchased one. The wheels do not turn well at all and it feels like I am just dragging the cart when I move it. I wanted to be able to move the cart easily to access a small cabinet it sits near, and I wanted to be able to move the cart easily to clean under it. I plan to look for some other wheels to replace these with, but that is definitely an added expense, if I can even find some that will work. I should have read other reviews a little closer as I now see the wheels have been a problem for others. All in all a decent cart, and a decent price that mostly lives up to its promises.

Good cart.
Size: 5 Tiers (8.7"D x 39.2"H), Color: Rustic Brown + Classic Black
Very good cart. Could use better wheels, but all in all nice looking cart. Wish it came with a-hooks so you could hang pot holders or something of the like on the end b horizontal bars, but it does NOT.

Nice Versatile and Strong Cart
Material Type: Three Tiers Cart
The cart looks great and fits our needs perfectly. It is very sturdy and well made. However, it took a lot longer to put together than I expected because there many parts and they have to fit together perfectly. Worth it though!
