The Dracaena deremensis “Janet Craig”, fondly known as the corn plant, or simply Dracaena “Janet Craig,” is a perennial plant that has long dark-green leaves and a cane-like stem.  This plant is tough and adaptable. Like other forms of the ‘Cornstalk’ Dracaena, this cultivar will grow in part sun outdoors, as well as in heavy shade or indoors. Compared to other indoor choices, this robust plant is much less susceptible to leaf drop or damping off.  If you don’t consider yourself a green thumb, this may be the plant for you!

Care Guide

Choose a brightly lit place indoors, or semi-shade outdoors. They can be grown in full sun, but will look worn out if they receive too much direct sun. They have fairly low water needs. If your plant lives inside, it will not require a lot of water. A deep watering once a week should be adequate, less often during winter. The 'Janet Craig does not really require pruning. However, you can trim back slightly, if you choose to do so. It will not tolerate frost or prolonged cold conditions. Regular fertilizing with products such as Troforte and Organic Link will produce lush, glossy growth.
