The Dracaena species are perfectly adapted to the conditions in the African inland and are known for their strength and longevity.

Characteristics
The Dracaena fragrans 'Tornado' stands out due to its unique, spiral growth. The leaves are long, wide, and shiny, adding an elegant atmosphere to any space.

Care
In terms of care, the Dracaena fragrans 'Tornado' doesn’t need much - it tolerates low light conditions and has a moderate water requirement. Ideally, the plant should be placed in a well-lit spot, but it can also survive in semi-shade. Due to its tropical origin, the plant prefers warm temperatures and high humidity, but it can also withstand drier conditions. It is advisable to keep the soil slightly moist, but avoid water saturation to prevent root rot.
