Here’s a great display for the purpose of plant identification (@ikeacanada #startfooding): the tall plant on the left is Dracaena massangeana (aka ‘corn plant’ because of its floppy leaves, resembling the actual corn or maize plant); the one of the right is Yucca elephantipes, with its sharp, stiffer, pointed leaf tips. These two plants start to look like each other when they grow for several years in poorly lit interiors: leggy, scraggly, dark green leaves. Give these guys at least 200 foot-candles! Oh hello, Calathea roseopicta! Also, here’s a “rain chain”: it guides rainwater from the roof to the drain below; a substitute for a downspout, usually found on the side of your house #cornplant #dracaena #dracaenamassangeana #yucca #calathea #calathearoseopicta #toronto #toronto_insta #yourtoronto #houseplants #indoorplants #houseplantsofinstagram #plantsmakepeoplehappy #plantlove #plantlife #plantsofinstagram #plantstagram #botanical #botany #greenery #foliage #leaflove #leaf #urbanjunglebloggers #jungalowstyle
