Dracaenas — Stove Varieties. 
For Greenhouse varieties see page 56- 
Dracaenas arc remarkable for their richness of colour. The narrow-leaved varieties are 
great favourites and are extremely beautiful for table decoration. The broader foliaged sorts 
are highly effective for groups and similar purposes. The varieties enumerated below require 
the temperature of a stove and should be grown and treated as recommended for Crotons, 
see page 32. Fibrous loam, lumpy peat, with a little sand and charcoal, forms the best compost.
