Dracaena pethera 'Coppertone' – Rare Copper-Tinted Snake Plant

Dracaena pethera var. pulchra 'Coppertone' (syn. Sansevieria kirkii var. pulchra 'Coppertone') is a beautifully colored cultivar of Dracaena pethera. It forms rosettes of long, strap-like leaves with undulating margins and sharply pointed tips. Each leaf is patterned with dark green spots and lines, overlaid with a distinctive coppery sheen when grown in bright light. Pinkish tints may appear along the surface, giving the plant a unique metallic glow that sets it apart from other snake plants.

What Makes 'Coppertone' Special

  • Leaf Color: Dark green mottling combined with bronze, copper, and pinkish tones in good light.
  • Growth Habit: Rosette-forming with broad, strap-like leaves up to 60 cm long.
  • Texture: Wavy leaf margins and pointed tips add character to its bold form.
  • Collector Appeal: Far rarer than standard snake plants, prized for its unusual coloration.

Background and Taxonomy

This cultivar belongs to Dracaena pethera, a species once placed in the genus Sansevieria. Following molecular studies, Sansevieria has been merged into Dracaena. The name 'Coppertone' refers to its striking coppery coloration, especially pronounced under strong light conditions. Its unique coloring makes it a standout even among the many ornamental cultivars of the group.

How to Grow Dracaena 'Coppertone'

  • Light: Best color develops in bright, indirect light; tolerates some direct sun.
  • Watering: Very drought-tolerant; water sparingly and let the soil dry thoroughly before watering again.
  • Soil: Use a mineral-rich, fast-draining succulent mix.
  • Temperature: Prefers warmth; keep above 12 °C.
  • Fertilizer: Feed lightly during the growing season with diluted cactus or succulent fertilizer.
  • Containers: Suited to wide pots that allow the rosettes to spread over time.

Things to Keep in Mind

  • Color Intensity: Copper and pink hues are strongest in high light, less pronounced in shade.
  • Overwatering Risk: Roots rot easily if left in soggy soil.
  • Growth Rate: Slow-growing; develops character with age and light stress.
  • Toxicity: Like other Dracaena, toxic to pets if ingested.

Why Grow Dracaena 'Coppertone'

This cultivar combines the toughness of snake plants with extraordinary coloration. Its metallic copper and pink overtones make Dracaena 'Coppertone' a living statement piece for design-focused interiors and serious collections alike. Hardy yet exotic-looking, it brings a rare twist to an already beloved plant group.

Etymology

The genus name Dracaena comes from the Ancient Greek δράκαινα (drakaina), meaning “female dragon,” a reference to the red resin (“dragon’s blood”) produced by some species.

Awesome! Game changer if u ride in cold weather
These are amazing! I’m not real big on leaving reviews. Takes something either really good or really bad. Well these heated grips are on the really good side. They’re a game changer. I’ve been using them for about a month now here in Buffalo, where it’s been prettttty cold. I can ride in temps lower than I’ve ever ridden in before, without wearing thick bulky gloves. The first couple settings actually get too hot sometimes. I was super skeptical about these because I’ve bought similar heated pads before, that hardly even heated up and died after like 5 minutes. But these things get piping hot and stay there. I don’t give anything 5 stars, cuz there’s always room for improvement, but if I could give these 4.9 out of 5, I would. If I had to say something negative about these, it would be that they’re thick on top of my current grips, but that’s the nature of the beast with this type of product, and I have smaller hands. If you’ve been scrolling through different versions of this type of product, just buy these and u will be more than happy.

Used for skid steer. Adjusting heat is perfect.
Perfect for my open cab skid steer. Only downside is the button sticky pad is poor quality but easy fix pick what glue you want and stays in place.

Great to have on a cheap bike!
The right grip provides ample heat, but the left grip is lacking for certain. The left provides what feel like half the heat output. The right gets hot enough to make lift my hand to let it cool, so that's good. Its cheap, you get bunk ones occasionally.

They work, they work really good.
These things are amazinggg. I have the option with the five different modes, let me tell you, they get F-ng HOT. Nice and easy instal.l I haven’t experienced any slipping at all after installing. I did install it to straight to the wiring so that once I turn off the scooter it shuts power off as well. In case one were to ever forget.
