DRACAENA DEREMENSIS 'Janet Craig Compacta'

Lush, dark green leaves in a rosette reminiscent of bromeliads, but without the need for bright light, making this is a great plant for low light areas.

Because of its slow growth rate, it’s also a great choice for areas where you want a small plant. 

Since it’s easy to care for, it makes a nice gift plant and does well in office environments.
