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.

Plush rug that’s super soft. WOW!
Color: Natural (Yellow-white Ivory), Size: 6' x 7' (Natural)
Beautiful and super plush! I use it as an outer blanket when cold weather camping. Like a modern day cave man. One of my favorite purchases. I avoid kneeling on it while it’s on my mattress fearing it might split the hide, or damage the stitching. It fits my queen size camper bed. Cant say enough!

Big Investment for a Lifetime of Quality
Color: Natural (Yellow-white Ivory), Size: 2' x 3' (Natural)
Several reviews mentioned a smell lingering with the sheepskin even after being unpacked a few days. I did notice the smell when I unpacked it, but I would expect a slight odor from such an item. It was not overpowering and is completely gone after one month of having it laid out on a chest in our bedroom. It is very functional, can be sat on, knelt on, etc, but is easily brushed off and looks great! The quality is very good…someone in my family is on it every night, and we have experienced no shedding whatsoever. Although the price is a big investment initially, I believe the quality is worthy. We plan to enjoy this beautiful sheepskin for a lifetime!

Love it, but terrible smell at first

Really soft & my dog loves it. I used it as a throw over my couch for decor. The smell when I took it out of the package was probably one of the worst smells I’ve ever smelled. Like old broccoli or something. I left it outside to air out all day and that was gone.
