Dracaena 'Song of Jamaica'

Dragon Tree (Dracaena reflexa ‘Song of Jamaica’) is native to the islands of the Indian Ocean—Madagascar, Mauritius, and nearby archipelagos—where warm winds carry salt and moisture inland, and sunlight filters through canopies of palm and fern. The air there is soft but constant, and the soil drains quickly through sand and volcanic stone. Rain falls in brief, shimmering bursts, followed by long hours of calm light.

From this coastal rhythm, Dracaena ‘Song of Jamaica’ inherits its resilient beauty. Slender, upright stems rise in branching tiers, each crowned with whorls of narrow, glossy leaves variegated in lime and deep green. The foliage spirals outward in rhythmic patterns, its color shifting subtly with light—bright in morning, cool and dark by afternoon. Growth is measured but steady, giving the plant a sculptural form that feels both wild and ordered.

In cultivation, Song of Jamaica thrives in bright, indirect light and average room temperatures. It adapts easily to indoor life, preferring moderate moisture and well-draining soil. Its tolerance for shade and dry air makes it a quiet, forgiving companion for homes and offices alike.

Graceful yet grounded, Dracaena ‘Song of Jamaica’ carries the calm poise of the tropics—an evergreen accent of light and form that endures through time and change.
