Dracaena Trifasciata, commonly known as Mother-in-Law's Tongue, is a flowering plant in the Asparagaceae family. Native to tropical West Africa, it ranges from Nigeria to the Congo. Despite its somewhat intimidating name, this plant is surprisingly low-maintenance and resilient.

With its long, snake-like leaves adorned with light-colored edges, it adds a touch of color to any room. Being a succulent, it thrives in a sandy potting mix, and it's best to avoid fertilizing it during the winter to give it the best chance of thriving. Historically, its fibers have even been used to make bowstrings.
