This is a superweapon in the arsenal of the plantscaper, as it is one of the only tree looking indoor plants that can withstand low light spots. These are some of the toughest plants known to indoor growers. 

The corn tree as it is commonly known, also the dragon tree, as it has a red line running along the edge of each leaf, is a low maintenance plant that can last for years.

These slender tall specimens have been selected for their tree like appearance, to bring that look to spaces that aren't blessed with great amounts of light. 

Best space & place

It prefers a bright or lightly shaded spot but will also tolerate lower light levels.

When to water & feed
