Variegated Dracaena Sanderiana (Ribbon Plant) Care and Pruning

Identification and Growth Habit

Your 4-foot plant is a variegated Dracaena sanderiana (Ribbon Plant), the variegated form of Lucky Bamboo. It grows upright with apical dominance—no natural branching.

Pruning for Height Control

Cut stems back to any desired height. New shoots emerge just below the cut. Root the cuttings in water or replant at the base for a fuller look. Regular pruning maintains compact size.

Care Tips

• Bright indirect light.
• Water when top inch of soil is dry.
• Keep moderately pot-bound.
