Dracaena surculosa, known as Gold Dust Dracaena or Spotted Dracaena, is a shrubby species from the Asparagaceae family. Its slender, upright stems bear whorls of glossy green leaves heavily speckled with creamy-yellow spots.
Growing 2 to 3 feet tall, it thrives in bright indirect light and well-drained soil, tolerating lower light. It's more compact than other dracaenas, ideal for tabletops or mixed containers. Synonyms include Pleomele surculosa.
