Dracaena fragrans 'Ulises'

Dracaena fragrans 'Ulises' is a cool-toned striped cane Dracaena with glossy green leaves marked by fine white to silvery lines. The leaves are narrow and lance-shaped, forming neat heads at the tips of slender woody canes.

Indoor plants are often grown with several canes at different heights, creating a tiered outline with foliage held above a visible stem base. As the plant matures, older leaves gradually clear from the lower stems and reveal the ringed cane beneath.

Fine silver striping on narrow leaves

  • Foliage: Narrow green leaves with fine white to silvery stripes running along the blade.
  • Stem habit: Woody cane growth with leaf clusters produced near active stem tips.
  • Mature form: Lower leaves age away slowly, exposing more cane as height develops.
  • Layered shape: Multi-cane plants create layered foliage at different heights.

Cane growth from a tropical African species

Dracaena fragrans is native to Tropical Africa, where it grows as a shrub or small tree. The cultivated cane forms used indoors keep the same basic growth pattern: woody stems carry active leaf heads, while roots prefer warmth, air and measured moisture.

Cool striped foliage, slender canes and tiered leaf heads define this cultivar indoors. As the plant settles into a bright filtered position, new leaves continue from the cane tips while older lower leaves gradually reveal the ringed stems beneath.

Care for slender striped canes

  • Light: Give bright indirect to moderate filtered light. Strong direct sun can scorch pale striping, especially after shipping.
  • Watering: Water after the upper 50–70% of the mix has dried, then drain thoroughly before returning the plant to its cover pot.
  • Substrate: Use an airy indoor mix with bark, pumice, perlite or similar mineral material to keep oxygen around the roots.
  • Temperature: Maintain 18–27 °C and keep the canes away from cold draughts, chilled floors and wet winter compost.
  • Leaf surface: Clean the narrow blades occasionally so dust does not dull the fine striping.
  • Nutrition: Feed lightly in spring and summer, then reduce fertiliser when growth slows in lower seasonal light.
  • Repotting: Repot when roots are crowded or the stems become top-heavy, using a stable container with drainage.
  • Height control: Long canes can be cut back during active growth; healthy stems may reshoot from nodes below the cut.

Early checks for 'Ulises'

  • Sudden leaf drop: Check for cold exposure, wet roots or a sharp drop in light after moving the plant.
  • Brown tips: Review water quality, dry heated air, fertiliser build-up and inconsistent watering.
  • Dull striping: Wipe the leaves and move the plant into brighter filtered light if the pattern looks muted.
  • Soft lower cane: Inspect the stem base and roots if the potting mix has stayed damp for several days.
  • Scale or mealybugs: Look along cane nodes and leaf bases, where pests can settle before leaf damage is obvious.

Placement away from pets

Dracaena fragrans 'Ulises' should be positioned away from cats and dogs that chew foliage. Ingested Dracaena leaves can cause digestive symptoms, so fallen leaves and pruned cane sections should be removed after maintenance.

Botanical name and etymology

Dracaena fragrans belongs to Asparagaceae. The genus name Dracaena is linked to Greek drakaina, meaning female dragon, and the species epithet fragrans refers to scented flowers produced by the species under suitable conditions. The cultivar name 'Ulises' identifies this fine-striped cane form.

Dracaena fragrans 'Ulises' has cool silver-green striping, slim canes and tiered foliage.

The Most Clear and Accessible (Not to Mention Funny) Treatment of the Trinity I Have Ever Encountered
Format: Paperback
The Trinity may be the most difficult Doctrine of the Church to understand and it is even more difficult to explain clearly; yet it is also central and essential to the Christian Faith. This makes it very difficult for those of us in ministry who want to teach about the Nature of God with accuracy, clarity, and care. More often than not, discussions of God’s Triune nature involve analogies of water, apples, hats, and other such symbols that never seem to really help anyone’s understanding and serve only to muddy the theological waters. Stephen Bullivant’s concise, fair-minded, humorous, and incredibly accessible work is truly a breath of fresh air. It has brought much needed relief from bad analogies and incredible clarity to a difficult topic. I will even go so far as to say it has re-shaped both my thinking about and teaching of the Trinity. What I love most about this book is that I can recommend it to anyone. The clarity of thought with which Bullivant writes, and the ease with which he uses pop-culture and humor to illuminate complex ideas make this a rare book on theology that provides the reader with both the erudition of a scholar and the art a communicator. I have been teaching from this book at our church since I read it last Spring and I can attest from the feedback that I have gotten that it has been a game-changer on the topic of the Trinity for many people here. Quite a few have told me that the way Bullivant explains the Trinity has brought them clarity one this the Doctrine for the first time in their Christian experience. I cannot recommend this book highly enough for anyone in ministry that is looking for a way to communicate a very difficult theological topic with clarity, humor, humility, and care.

A Clear, Readable, and Necessary Contribution
Format: Paperback
This is a clear, readable, and necessary book. The Trinity is the central mystery of the Christian faith, but it can be difficult to articulate in a simple and coherent way. As one who regularly teaches the topic in the Catholic high school setting, I appreciated the very accessible approach that the author takes. Anyone who struggles with the basic meaning of the doctrine would benefit from this text, as would those who are tasked with explaining it to others. From the very first page of the book, the author presents the doctrine of the Trinity through three basic statements: 1. There is only one God. 2. The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit is each God. 3. The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit are not the same. Besides a very good opening chapter on the ability to speak about God at all, the entire book is basically an unpacking of why the Church came to believe in these three statements and the problems (aka heresies) that arise when any one of the three is denied. Over the course of the book, the reader will become familiar with many of the key biblical texts underlying the doctrine of the Trinity and the early theologians who defended it. While this is not primarily a work of doctrinal history, the arguments are almost entirely based on the thought of these fourth and fifth century theologians. Two points are worth noting, though neither was a "deal breaker" for me: First, be ready for lots of references to popular culture. I was surprised to see mentions of everything from Wayne's World and Borat to the song Achy Breaky Heart and the Three Amigos. These are no doubt great examples from the author's experience, as university teacher, in connecting the subject matter to his student audience. But in almost every instance I found myself drawn away from the topic at hand and in some cases I was left pondering the usefulness of the gratuitous reference itself. Luckily, I got almost every single one--until a late reference to the British TV series Father Ted forced me to look it up on Google. Second, I'm not sure if this book is still in such an early printing that it hasn't been physically typeset yet, but my edition looked as though an inkjet printer produced it. In an age of Retina display screens, it was a bit odd being disappointed in the quality of actual printed text. Overall, I highly recommend the book. I've just ordered the author's previous book from Paulist Press and look forward to his future works.

This book is good if you wish to know the heresies of the Trinity. It does not cover the inner working relationships of the Trinity.

It doesn't have to be a mystery
Format: Paperback
The answer almost every Catholic including the clergy give regarding the Trinity is "its a mystery." Its not if you read Bullivant it is now a discussion and conversation about the Christian understanding of God. Now the person in the pew can help explain "the mystery" to the clergy who haven't read The Trinity. The author introduces the Trinity as "supreme simplicity" and then guides discussion through an adult presentation of a fundamental belief among Christians. The style is very conversational with wonderful and one could say fun examples. The author makes excellent use of scripture and the writings of the early Christian church before all the disputes and splits started. He does it all in about a 100 pages. Perfect for the curious, those wanting a real answer about the Trinity and for small study groups. Finally it is done with an ecumenical approach that allows Christians to dialogue together and with those with different or no faith tradition.
