Cintho Dracaena (Dracaena fragrans steudneri 'Cintho')

Cintho Dracaena is a bold tropical houseplant valued for its upright cane form, broad striped foliage, and easygoing indoor performance. Its leaves feature rich green tones with a bright yellow to lime-green center stripe, giving rooms, offices, and interior plantings a clean vertical accent. The multi-stem habit creates tiered foliage at different heights, making it useful where a floor plant needs structure without a wide footprint. With bright indirect light, well-drained soil, and careful watering, Cintho Dracaena brings reliable color and height to indoor spaces with minimal fuss.

Distinctive Features

Cintho Dracaena grows from sturdy upright canes topped with broad, arching leaves that create a palm-like tropical effect indoors. The foliage is its main ornamental feature, with deep green margins and a strong yellow to lime-green stripe running through the center of each leaf. Multi-cane plants create a layered look, adding height and fullness while still keeping a relatively narrow profile. While mature Dracaena fragrans can flower under the right conditions, Cintho Dracaena is grown primarily for its foliage and rarely blooms as an indoor houseplant.

Growing Conditions

  • Sun: Grows best in bright indirect light but can tolerate medium indoor light, while harsh direct sun may scorch the foliage.
  • Soil: Prefers a well-drained indoor potting mix that holds light moisture without staying soggy.
  • Water: Allow the top portion of the soil to dry before watering, then water thoroughly and let excess drain away.
  • USDA Zones: Best grown as a houseplant in most climates and hardy outdoors only in frost-free tropical conditions, generally USDA Zones 10 to 12.
  • Mature Size: Typically reaches about 4 to 8 feet tall indoors and about 2 to 3 feet wide, depending on pot size, light, and pruning.
  • Habit: Forms an upright, cane-like tropical houseplant with tiered clusters of broad arching foliage.

Ideal Uses

  • Focal Point: Use as a vertical indoor focal point in living rooms, offices, lobbies, entry areas, or bright corners where its striped foliage can add height and structure.
  • Floor Plant: Place in a decorative container where its upright canes and layered leaves can fill space without spreading too widely.
  • Office Plant: Use in workspaces where a durable, low-fuss foliage plant can handle typical indoor light and humidity conditions.
  • Interior Accent: Pair with lower houseplants to create a layered indoor plant display with contrasting leaf shapes and heights.
  • Container Planting: Grow in a well-drained pot with room for root development and enough weight to support the plant as it gains height.

Low Maintenance Care

  • Watering: Water when the upper soil has dried and avoid letting the plant sit in standing water, since overwatering can lead to root problems.
  • Light Care: Rotate the pot occasionally so the plant grows evenly toward the light and keeps a balanced shape.
  • Leaf Care: Wipe leaves occasionally with a damp cloth to remove dust and keep the striped foliage looking clean.
  • Humidity: Average indoor humidity is usually acceptable, though the plant benefits from slightly higher humidity in very dry rooms.
  • Fertilizing: Feed lightly during the active growing season with a balanced houseplant fertilizer, following label directions.
  • Pruning: Remove yellow or damaged leaves as needed and cut back canes if height control or branching is desired.

Why Choose Cintho Dracaena?

  • Bold Foliage: Displays broad green leaves with a bright yellow to lime-green center stripe for strong indoor color.
  • Upright Shape: Adds vertical structure without taking up as much width as many other large houseplants.
  • Easy Indoor Care: Handles typical home and office conditions when watered carefully and kept out of harsh direct sun.
  • Layered Look: Multi-cane plants create tiered foliage that gives the plant a fuller, more architectural appearance.
  • Versatile Placement: Works well in living rooms, offices, entries, lobbies, bright corners, and decorative containers.

Cintho Dracaena is an excellent choice for anyone who wants a tall, colorful houseplant with a clean upright habit and manageable care needs. Its striped foliage, cane-like structure, and strong indoor presence make it a dependable plant for adding height, texture, and tropical character to interior spaces.

Holy Grail Micellar Water
Size: 13.52 Fl Oz
This is my holy grail micellar water! My skin can be sensitive and reactive at times, and this product has never let me down. It has never irritated my eyes or skin. I use it to double cleanse, although sometimes I use only this micellar water followed by a quick splash of water. It does not leave a film and leaves my skin feeling nourished and happy.

but takes quiet a good amount of cotton balls
Size: 6.8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
It removes makeup alright, but takes quiet a good amount of cotton balls. Haven't try it on waterproof makeup yet, but it does make make skin feels clean and isn't harsh. Edit: Tried it for a couple of days, and here's the verdict: It can remove makeup, but you'll need a good amount of it on a cotton pad, and likely you'll use more than one. It feels nice while it is on the face, though it clean best with light makeup, and it takes me a couple of cotton balls to clean eyeliner and mascara. I needed to use moisturizer after it, because it make my skin feels dry. It doesn't take long, and definitely save more time than washing with soap and water, but it's a little bit of a hassle, too. Oh well, at least it's very convenient.

THE Best facial toner period!!!
Size: 6.8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This review is for the 200ml bottle I am one of those few but very fortunate people that isn't allergic to anything, or sensitive to most soaps, cleansers and toners. Unfortunately now that I'm in my fifties my face isn't as fuss free as it once was and soaps and cleansers that were once okay, are now either too harsh for my skin or dry it out. Worse than that are those products that irritate my eyes, especially if they're meant to be used around that area. What gives with these manufacturers whose products are supposed to cleanse your face, but irritate your eyes? Of course sooner or later you're going to get some in your eyes regardless of how careful you are. Which brings me to this amazingly excellent cleanser. A more accurate description of this cleanser would a "cleansing toner" as it's not really a face wash i.e. it doesn't soap or foam up like other facial cleansers. As I'm a guy and don't wear any make up I can't vouch for its efficacy in that department. But I can vouch most enthusiastically for its ability to strip your face clean of excess oil and grime picked up during the day without leaving your face feeling dry or tight. I do use it around both my upper and lower eyelids with zero eye irritation at all. It leaves my face feeling clean and refreshed with only the slightest hint of a clean refreshing smell, so it won't interfere with your perfume or cologne. I use it twice a day as an in between facial cleanser/refresher to eliminate that grimy oily look between my daily showers. Highly recommended for doing an excellent job without irritating or drying out my skin. Try it out yourself as this could be the only skin toner that you'll ever need, and it's reasonably priced too. :)

Holy grail for type 1 rosacea
Size: 1 Ounce (Pack of 1), Size: 1 Ounce (Pack of 1)
This has saved my face. I have type 1 rosacea and my skin has been pissed off for the last eight months straight. I have tried everything including compounded prescription creams that only made my face flare worse. I deal with a lot of flushing and burning that can be triggered by the slightest bit in temperature rise or just seemingly at random, especially at night. Since using this product my skin has calmed down drastically. It's only been a couple days, but so far I'm thinking this is a holy grail product for me. I also purchased the Glenser because the oil cleanser that I was using had fragrance and alcohol, which can be extremely irritating for rosacea. Since switching to Prequel I can honestly say my skin is so much happier and less reactive. Worth a shot if your a rosy girl like me.
