"Song Of India" Dracaena Reflexa

Many years ago when I was in Agra, India touring the Taj Mahal, I was very impressed not only with the perfection of that famous building, but also the beautiful gardens around it. There was a hedge about 3' tall of "Song of India" plants that were just as dazzling as the white marble of the Taj Mahal.

What a beautiful plant Jon! I will be happy to send you some seeds from the purple perilla. I didn't save any from last year so it will be later in the summer before I have any. You may have to remind me!

This is a stunning plant. I have one that isn't as pretty - it has white edges rather than yellow ones. I'd love to see a full hedge of them - it would be beautiful.
