Dracaenas belong to Agavacae family. There are approximately 40 different dracaneas, only about 8 of which are grown for indoor use. One of the most attractive characteristics of Dracaenas is the many different forms available. Bush, staggered cane, tree and exotic are just a few. Dracaenas have been used for many years in the interior by plantscapers. Because of the many forms available and their small "footprint", (heights of 5-6 feet are not uncommon in a 10" pot) dracaenas offer great versatility for indoor use.

Here are links to the five Dracaenas you're most likely to see used in interior decorating.
