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.

beautiful warm scarf
Color: Nougat
This scarf is gorgeous! It is large so it can be worn in multiple ways. It is very very warm, perfect for cold autumn and winter. The nougat color is just as pictured. It is a very pretty neutral color that matches everything. The only thing I don't particularly love about scarf is that it is a bit scratchy for me. However, I feel like my skin might be more sensitive than usual. I love that it is made of natural fabrics but it sheds a little bit and you can see that on black sweaters the most.

Soft and warm
Color: Cream
This cashmere scarf is honestly light weight, soft and warm. My only complaint would be that the width measurement isn’t wide. Measures at 19.5 but stretches a bit. So I can’t really wrap it how i like. Despite that I love the scarf and I am keeping it. With a safety pin I’ll be able to wear it how I intend to.
