Plant of the Day: Song of India Leaf


I don't know why this leaf is called as 'Song of India' in Indonesia, maybe it's from India, who knows?. As I know, it belongs to dracaena. Dracaena Reflexa is its Latin name. For florists, 'SOI' is often used as filler as it's very effective to cover the wet foam. It'll make a big flower arrangements look full in a moment and also doesn't look monotonous because of its colourful color of leaves (usually green with light yellow in the edge). Imagine if  there are only flowers in  a flower arrangements without any greenish at all, so boring right? 


From appearance 'SOI' plant looks like 'suji' leaf, which famous as natural color for food in Indonesia.
