Dracaena (Sansevieria) zeylanica
Dracaena zeylanica is a rhizomatous snake plant with upright, sword-shaped leaves marked by soft grey-green banding. The foliage rises from the base in a tight clump, giving the plant a calm vertical shape and a muted, natural pattern.
The leaves are pointed, slightly fleshy and held in a restrained green palette with fine transverse markings. In a pot, Dracaena zeylanica develops through basal shoots, gradually adding density around the rhizome.
Flat blades with quiet banding
- Upright, sword-like leaves with grey-green transverse markings.
- Rhizomatous base that gradually adds new shoots around the clump.
- Measured indoor growth with long-lasting foliage.
- Well matched to warm rooms and a sharply draining substrate.
Rhizome, range and container growth
Dracaena zeylanica is accepted botanically under Dracaena, while Sansevieria zeylanica remains the older name many growers still recognise. The species is native to southern India and Sri Lanka, where it grows as a rhizomatous geophyte in seasonally dry tropical conditions.
In a pot, the rhizomes and thick leaves are built for dry intervals, so the plant responds best to a clear wet-dry cycle. New shoots may appear close to the existing leaves, slowly widening the clump over time.
Watering pattern for a dry-season plant
- Light: Give bright indirect light or mild morning/evening sun. In lower light, new growth usually arrives more slowly.
- Watering: Let the pot dry deeply before watering again, then soak evenly and drain fully.
- Substrate: Use a mineral, fast-draining mix with pumice, lava, grit or other coarse components.
- Temperature: Keep warm indoors, ideally above 18 °C, and protect the pot from cold windowsills.
- Feeding: Feed lightly in spring and summer. This rhizomatous plant needs only modest nutrition.
- Repotting: Repot when the rhizomes press firmly against the pot or the mix has become dense.
Early warning signs
- Soft leaf bases: Check for wet substrate, poor drainage or cold conditions around the rhizome.
- Wrinkled leaves: A very long dry spell may leave the foliage slightly folded or dull; water thoroughly once the pot is warm.
- Pale dry patches: Sudden direct sun can mark the leaf surface, especially after a darker indoor position.
- Hidden pests: Look between the leaf bases for mealybugs and wipe the leaves when dust or pests appear.
Placement around pets and children
Dracaena zeylanica should be kept away from pets and small children who may chew leaves. Ingestion may cause digestive upset, and the pointed leaf tips are better placed where they will not be brushed at face height.
Botanical name and synonym
Dracaena comes from the ancient Greek drakaina, meaning female dragon. The epithet zeylanica means “of Ceylon,” referring to Sri Lanka under its historic name. Sansevieria zeylanica remains a widely recognised synonym for the same plant.
Dracaena zeylanica has flat upright leaves, soft banding and steady rhizome growth in a muted green clump.

Nice Edger as long as the blade doesn't come loose -- and it will come loose, repeatedly!
Probably could've/should've rated this 2 stars yet it works well when it works. I purchased this edger to edge my drive and sidewalks and not for trenching. The edger arrived very quickly after I ordered it (I am not a Prime member so this was a nice surprise). Assembly was easy and straight-forward. The first use went smoothly and the edger performed flawlessly and provided clean, smooth edging. About 20 minutes into the second use I noticed that the edger was cutting and quickly determined that the blade was spinning freely -- fortunately the hex nut was still attached to the threaded shaft. I reviewed the manual that came with the edger, grabbed the correct sized socket and torque wrench. I removed the hex nut, the first washer, the blade and then the second washer. To install I followed the directions ensuring that the flats of the washer aligned with the flat on the shaft and tightened the hex nut to the specified 140 in-lbs. The edger worked well for about 10 minutes and the blade once again became loose. This time I replaced the original blade (which did not need to be replaced from a wear perspective) with a new B&D blade and new washers. Once again I followed the instructions and this time the edger performed flawlessly until about 5 minutes remaining in my edging when once again the blade came loose. my experience has most certainly been frustrating to say the least. one should not need to carry a socket and torque wrench with them and repeatedly need to tighten the blade. So, when the edger performs as intended it does an excellent job at edging; however I have no confidence that this edger will be able to perform as intended throughout repeated uses and more importantly has shown that it cannot complete my edging without requiring tightening the blade (which requires disassembly down to the second keyed washer). Potential buyers should be prepared for this experience and make your decision accordingly. Note: I tried contacting black and decker via twitter (@blackdeckerhome) and never received a response; I could not find a separate customer service/support twitter account. Trying to contact customer service via the phone these days is an exercise in patience to say the least.

Great edger for home use
This WORX 12 Amp Electric Lawn Edger did exactly what I needed it to do. It was easy to use, had plenty of power for cleaning up the edges around my driveway and sidewalk, and gave the yard a much cleaner, finished look. I like that it is corded because I do not have to worry about batteries dying, and it has enough power for regular homeowner use.
The first pass took a little extra time since the edges needed cleaned up, but once I got going, it worked great. Overall, this is a solid edger/trencher for the price, and I would definitely recommend it for anyone wanting cleaner lawn edges without dealing with gas.

Little work horse!
I LOVE the look of an edged sidewalk. After a few calls to some local landscape companies, I couldn't find anyone with an edger. Crazy! So I bought myself this one! Super easy to put together and just as easy to use. My walk hasn't been edged for many years and was very overgrown. I was nervous that I wouldn't be able to run this thing, but this little work horse did the job for me and did it perfectly. It will be super easy to keep it edged now. Extremely happy with this purchase.

Takes The Edge Off!
This is a decent product. If you are going to do a lot of edging, or want to do deep trenching to run conduit, etc. this is NOT the product you want. It is electric, so you are tethered to an outlet, and of course, the farther you go on extension cords, the less of the 12 amp juice you get. It also trenches to 1 1/2", which is OK, but not enough to dump conduit, etc.
That said, this is a very good edger. Out of the box, it is minimal assembly. You connect the three pieces of the shaft, removing some edge tape from it, and inserting two metal bolts and plastic knobs, similar to most lawn mowers these days. Then you install the plastic handle with another bolt. That's it.
For use, you have a lever which you pull up for edging and lower for trenching to adjust the group clearance. You also choose 1", 1/4", or 1 1/2" depth. Then you plug it in.
There is a white line on top of the blade cover so you know where the blade is. You just pull the trigger to run the blade, or release the trigger to stop the blade.
Be careful not to lose sight of your electric cord so you don't hit it!
I edged along my driveway, about 50' on each side, as well as my front of my lawn, so another 85' along the lawn and the apron (both sides). That's over 350'. It cut through the grass and dirt easily. It struggled a couple of times, on some tough mounds of grass, but like any other tool, you don't force it when that happens, just back up and do that area again slowly.
If you come too close to blacktop, Belgian block, stone, etc. you will see sparks so you will know.
Just keep in mind, this is an edger. You will be left with the severed grass/sod to remove. In my case I was loooong overdue for a edging, so I spent a long time scraping the sod off the pavement with a shovel. I expect with more frequent ending, and now working with a cleaner edge, this will be less of an issue. Either way, that is not on the product, but the state of the lawn.
The edger has 2 read wheels and one smaller front wheel so , although this is not like a big, gas-powered curb jumping unit, you have the option of attacking a curb edge from either the blade side or other side of the edger, so you can get real close to a Belgian block curb.
I also did the edge where my grass meets my mulched flower bed, but that was more of a trimming than a edge removal.
Overall, the Work edger did as good, or better, a job than my string trimmer, and I didn't have to stop every few minutes to rewrap string. Plus it trenched enough to give me a definitive edge, whereas the string edger just cuts into the grass, not a real trench.
