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.

a solid choice
I realized I don't need to drill 5mm holes, so this item is just perfect. It's higher quality than those other cheap-chinese noname jigs. In particular: * The stop collar provided actually fits the drill bit. I had one from Tanyo that had too-big collars that didn't stay put. * The fence pins are very soilid, so the jig doesn't move while in place. Other brands have a long knurled screw that wobbles and allows the kiig to move around. * The plate is thick, making it feel sturdy. * It's phyically smaller than the others, because it doesn't have any useless features like euro-hinge hole guides. The case is more compact and stores well. Overall, very satisfied with this jig.

A solid and easy to use product.
Worked like a charm. It is extremely durable and easy to use. I bought this item because the one I wanted wasn’t available. I don’t regret getting it.

very nice tool
likes, all aluminum construction, seems very accurate and uses more sturdy 1/4 inch shelf pins instead of the 5mm ones comes with 2 bits which is a huge plus the competition makes you buy the 1/4 drill and only is set up for 5mm to start. this jig will work along side, for now, my other jig dislike is the fact it only has 1/4 pin capability not a deal killer in any way, and it has "pins" to support the jig on the edge again this is both an advantage and disadvantage as you can change the depth of where the pins are located BUT if you are making something smaller the jig may not calibrate consistently. on another positive you can replace the bits easily and commonly as they are not proprietary and simply standard 1/4 inch bits this will be a fine addition to my other goingmake tools and future ones

Sturdy and well made
I have yet to use this jig, but on initial inspection it is well made and no doubt will withstand a lot of use. The machining of the threads was rough on the one I received, but after screwing in the guides a couple times the operation became smoother. Probably lack of cleanup after anodizing left in the threads. Other than that it looks like it will be useful and longer lasting than many of the plastic jigs out there.
