Cornstalk Plant (Dracaena Massangeana)

Elegant, tropical, and timelessly sophisticated — the Cornstalk Plant, also known as Dracaena Massangeana, is one of the most iconic indoor plants, loved for its sculptural form and striking foliage. Native to the tropical regions of Africa, this graceful evergreen features long, arching leaves in deep green with a vibrant yellow stripe running down the center, creating a look that’s both lush and refined.

Reaching heights between 80 cm and 120 cm, the Cornstalk Plant’s sturdy, woody cane and rosette-like leaf arrangement give it an architectural beauty that complements both contemporary and classic interiors. Its clean, upright growth makes it ideal for corners, entryways, or offices where it can bring height and freshness without overwhelming the space.

The Dracaena Massangeana is also known for its resilience and air-purifying abilities, filtering out toxins such as formaldehyde and benzene — ensuring your environment remains as healthy as it is beautiful. A true low-maintenance companion, it thrives in bright, indirect light but can also adapt to low-light conditions. Watering is simple: just allow the soil to dry slightly between sessions to prevent overwatering.

At Acacia, each Cornstalk Plant is cultivated at our own farms in the UAE, ensuring robust growth, vibrant leaves, and the unmistakable freshness that defines the Acacia standard — where nature’s elegance meets modern luxury.
