Dracaena angolensis (Sansevieria cylindrica)

Dracaena angolensis is the cylindrical snake plant still widely recognised as Sansevieria cylindrica. Its leaves rise from the base as thick grey-green spears with subtle banding and a rounded cross-section.

The plant starts with a narrow footprint, then gradually adds basal shoots from its rhizome. Mature leaves can become long and heavy, so a stable pot helps the plant sit securely as it develops.

Spears from a basal rosette

  • Cylindrical, pointed leaves with a water-storing texture.
  • Grey-green banding that follows the curved leaf surface.
  • Rhizomatous growth with new shoots emerging from the base.
  • Steady indoor development in a pot with excellent drainage.

African spear growth and rhizomes

Dracaena angolensis is native to southern tropical Africa, including Angola, Zambia and Zimbabwe. It grows as a rhizomatous geophyte in seasonally dry tropical habitats, which explains its tolerance of dry intervals and its sensitivity to cold, wet substrate.

Indoors, the plant builds height and density through the same pattern: thick foliage above, gradual rhizome spread below. New shoots may eventually fill the pot and create a denser cluster of spears.

Care for cylindrical spear leaves

  • Light: Place in a bright position with gentle direct sun if introduced gradually.
  • Watering: Water thoroughly after the substrate has dried deeply; reduce watering during cooler months.
  • Substrate: Use a gritty, mineral-rich mix that lets water pass quickly through the pot.
  • Pot weight: Use a heavier container to balance mature leaves as they gain height.
  • Temperature: Keep the plant warm and dry through winter, especially after watering.
  • Leaf care: Cut damaged leaves at the base with a clean blade; old scars stay visible on mature foliage.

When the base or leaves change

  • Dark soft tissue: Inspect the rhizome if the lower leaf base turns mushy or collapses.
  • Thin new leaves: Increase light gradually if fresh growth appears weak or stretched.
  • Loose plant in the pot: Check for root loss after overwatering, then restart in a drier substrate if needed.
  • Fine webbing or white clusters: Treat spider mites or mealybugs early, especially around the grooves and leaf bases.

Safe placement in the home

Dracaena angolensis contains saponins and is toxic if ingested by cats or dogs. Keep it out of reach of pets and small children, and wash hands after cutting damaged leaves if your skin is sensitive.

Why both names appear

The accepted botanical name is Dracaena angolensis. The familiar synonym Sansevieria cylindrica refers to the cylindrical leaves, while angolensis means “of Angola.” Dracaena itself comes from Greek drakaina, meaning female dragon.

Dracaena angolensis has cylindrical leaves, rhizome-led growth and a narrow indoor footprint.

Excellent Story
Format: Paperback
Charles Soule is without a doubt one of the greatest Star Wars authors around. With this comic he keeps the reader on their toes making it hard to set the book down. It is a definite page turner and easily one of the best comics Marvel has out out under the Star Wars name. An intriguing story, unforgettable moments, and packed with lore, Star Wars fans are sure to love The Rise of Kylo Ren.

Ben Solo’s fall is tragic
Format: Paperback
We don’t know much about Ben Solo’s past, but this comic explains a little bit more about why he is the way he is. It also explains that he didn’t do all the things he himself implies in TLJ. It’s a story of a young man who is lost because those he is supposed to trust betray him, which is exactly what Snoke/Palpatine want. It shows he didn’t really have a choice in the path he took and it makes his redemption at the end of the saga powerful, even if the last movie itself destroys the myth of Star Wars. I love knowing that Rey and Ben have always had a connection and I hope that is something explored more deeply in Episode X when they bring Ben back.

I enjoyed this story. This fills in a lot of gaps left open from the sequel trilogy, and the artwork was pretty cool. Excellent coloring and layout.

Better than the Chronicles
Format: Paperback
I hope DC keeps on publishing these omnibus series up to the silver age and also the softcover option. I much prefer these new softcover editions over the older chronicles series for several reasons. These STGA softcovers are very big almost twice the stories compared to the chronicles and at a very affordable price. Actually a very good price. Also the paper is one hundred times better, I hated the chronicles' paper. Amazon is wonderful too, they now deliver my comics to my house in Costa Rica in less than a couple of weeks, they always arrive before the scheduled time. Excellent service. The only thing to complain is the reproduction. I consider that Marvel makes better efforts than DC to restore their GA stuff. The Cory Sedlemeier books like the Marvel Comics Golden Age omnibus look like they were drawn this morning. DC is usually quite cheaper and prefers not invest in that. So we get the same results as the old early 2000s Archives. I know today it is impossible to get original art pages of action comics 1-10 But I still think that compared to Marvel DC is very lazy and a skintflint when it comes to restoring their old books.
