Dracaena masoniana 'Dragon' – Whale Fin Snake Plant with Net-Like Patterning
Dracaena (Sansevieria) masoniana 'Dragon' is a cultivar of Dracaena masoniana (Chahin.) Byng and Christenh., formerly classified under Sansevieria. Belonging to the family Asparagaceae, this variety is admired for its bold sword-shaped leaves marked with striking lime and dark green marbling. Each wide, upright blade carries a net-like pattern that sets it apart from other whale fin cultivars, giving it a more dynamic and textured look while maintaining the sturdy, architectural quality snake plants are known for.
Notable Traits of Dracaena 'Dragon'
- Leaf Appearance: Broad, upright leaves with distinctive lime-green and dark-green network markings.
- Form: Whale fin – like paddles, solitary at first but eventually forming loose clumps.
- Size: Mature leaves can reach 60 – 90 cm tall and 20 – 25 cm wide.
- Ornamental Value: More patterned than the plain deep green 'Victoria' form, adding visual texture.
Botanical Background
Dracaena masoniana originates from Central Africa, where it grows in dry, rocky conditions. Long known in horticulture as Sansevieria masoniana or “Mason’s Congo,” it was later reassigned to Dracaena. Cultivars like 'Dragon' have been selected for their unique foliage patterns, offering an ornamental upgrade to the iconic whale fin silhouette.
Care Essentials for Dracaena 'Dragon'
- Light: Thrives in bright, indirect light; tolerates shade but patterns show best in stronger light.
- Watering: Very drought-tolerant; water sparingly and allow soil to dry fully between waterings.
- Soil: Use a gritty, well-draining cactus or succulent mix.
- Temperature: Prefers 18 – 27 °C; protect from frost and prolonged cold.
- Feeding: Fertilize lightly with diluted succulent feed during active growth.
- Containers: Heavy pots recommended to balance large, upright leaves.
Growing Tips and Considerations
- Slow Growth: Produces new leaves infrequently; clumping occurs gradually via rhizomes.
- Overwatering: The main risk; soggy soil quickly leads to root rot.
- Pests: Generally resistant, though mealybugs or spider mites may appear if stressed.
- Toxicity: Like all Dracaena, it is toxic to pets if ingested.
Why Collectors Value 'Dragon'
Dracaena masoniana 'Dragon' takes the iconic whale fin snake plant and adds another layer of intrigue with its patterned foliage. The net-like lime and dark green markings give it a more animated look than solid forms, making it highly sought after by collectors who want variation in their snake plant collections without sacrificing resilience.
Name and Meaning
The genus name Dracaena comes from the Ancient Greek δράκαινα (drakaina), meaning “female dragon,” referring to the red resin (“dragon’s blood”) produced by some species. The cultivar name 'Dragon' highlights both its fierce, upright form and the netted pattern reminiscent of scales.

An action-packed dark romantasy
Format: Kindle
I loved this book! Queen of Roses is an Arthurian-inspired dark romantasy that is the first book in the Blood of Fae series. The story follows Morgan, the princess of Camelot who is rumored to be part fae. Fueled by prejudiced hatred and a mistrust of fae blood, Morgan’s abusive father strips her of her birthright and hands it to her half-brother, Arthur. Instead of becoming queen, Morgan is commanded to join the temple of the goddesses when she comes of age.
However, Arthur turns into a psychopathic, power-hungry, fae-hating king as he ages. He develops malevolent plans and commands Morgan to find an ancient weapon with legendary power. Although Morgan is wary of Arthur’s intentions, she embraces the opportunity to go on a journey and potentially change her fate.
The story picks up from there and we follow Morgan on her quest to find the ancient relic. It’s full of high stakes adventure, mystery, tension, banter, forced proximity, hidden magic, self discovery, and betrayal. This first installment of the series intricately develops the world building and character development. There’s little romance in this book, but it is evident that it is a slow burn that will continue to develop throughout the remainder of the series.
Overall, I loved the world building, the epic fantasy, Morgan’s journey of self discovery, and all of the twists and turns that set the stage for the future installments. I can’t wait to see what happens next!

Arthurian Fae Quest…say less.
Format: Kindle
A fae centered Arthurian tale unlike any I’ve read so far. The author did a great job at descriptive world building, with scenes easily playing out in my minds eye. There was plenty of action, suspense, and even a touch of horror. An enemies to lovers, slow burn romance, a quest, with plot twist and turns aplenty. There was a love triangle, which I’m not usually a fan of but, it played out well in this story line. The FMC, Morgan Pendragon, was so blatantly naïve, yet I typically expect as much in a ‘book one’ of a series, especially one that features a fairly sheltered princess. I was happy to read that in spite of this, she still showed a strong sense of morals, fire, and spine. Now our MMC? Kairos Draven, aka Void’s Edge. Oh, how I’m a sucker for a smoking’ hot grumpy warrior alpha with a witty mouth, and a strong sense of “touch her and die” attitude, so you know who held all my cards. That ending? Just made me swoon all the harder. Now add a battlecat that rivals the size of a horse…and well Ms. Briar Boleyn you have well and truly stolen my heart. I’m excited to see where the story goes from here, and follow along to see more of the characters growth. I went into this story fairly blind, and I think I enjoyed it all the more because of it.
Once the story got going, it had me in an absolute chokehold and it was difficult to put down.

Thank you Netgalley and Briar Boleyn for the ARC!
A camelot/king Arthur retelling with fae. I was hooked by the idea of this book immediately and was eager to jump into this world.
• slow burn
• enemies to lovers
• who did this to you
Morgan Pendragon watched her mother die by her father's hand when she was just eight years old, hiding under the bed. Morgan is believed to have the tainted blood of the fae in her veins and is cast aside so that her fathers illegitimate son, Arthur, can become the king. She's seen his cruel treatment of the fae firsthand, so when he sends her on a journey to find a fae weapon she seizes the opportunity to do more with her life. Along the way, she finds more than she could have imagined.
I don't know a whole lot about King Arthur and Camelot but I had a lot of fun with this story! The plot has some similar tropes to popular romantasy books (From blood and ash) but there's enough originality here that it doesn't feel like I'm reading a copy. I liked how the fae were different in appearance than what is typical in most fantasy books I've read. In this book they have blue hair, violet skin and a wide range of other characteristics. I thought that the world building was easy to follow and I could easily immerse myself into this world. After reading the blurb I kept wondering when she was going to go on the journey to find Excalibur and it doesn't happen until around the 45% mark.
The story is a bit slow at times but starts to pick up once they begin their journey to find Excalibur. The John Wick style Inn was a fun concept that I enjoyed reading about.
There are a lot of similarities to this and FBAA and I would have liked to have it be a little more different, but I'm hoping book two will have the story turn into something of its own. Overall I enjoyed reading this story and I'm looking forward to reading book two especially after that ending.

Main Characters: Huntyr and Wolf
•
I couldn’t wait to read this book; there was so much hype about it! And there was no doubt why. I fell in love with the characters and the plot itself. This book is mainly plot driven more than friction driven but it’s easy to follow along with. The characters are fun, easily understood. The main setting is at an academy where both the main characters are going through trials and building strength for the final test, The Transcendent. There are fantastic side characters as well. I loved the camaraderie between Huntyr and her friends. But we don’t like Lanson. 😆
We do have some plot twists that come into play throughout the book. Secrets and betrayal to be seen. I did adore Wolf and Huntyr’s relationship. It was a classic slow burn trope. They didn’t hit it off fast, but in time their feelings grew. I loved their banter, so sexy. Wolf is your next book boyfriend; Huntyr is your next vampire assassin independent bad-a*s female. Themes include loyalty, trust, self-discovery, a true slow burn romance. Side note: book ends on a angsty cliffhanger!

“My heart bows to you and you only, Huntress.”
Format: Kindle
3.5 🌟
This book popped up in my KU recommended reading suggestions and the synopsis sounded like what I was in the mood for. I'm so glad I took a chance on it. I went into this knowing absolutely nothing about it and ended up really liking it. I love when this happens.
The main characters are likeable and I easily found myself rooting for them. There is a mystery element to each of their backstories that I enjoyed watching unfold and can't wait to get more of. Wolf, in particular, has me fixated. Love him.
I found this to be an entertaining, addictive read with a plot that moves along at a good pace. It reads so easily I found myself very reluctant to put it down. Lots of twists and turns and the angst is there. A good set up for the next book to come, for sure.
My issues with this book....the dialogue feels a bit juvenile at times and there is a repetitive over use of a particular word phrasing that I found myself giving the ole eye-roll to. There are, without a doubt, some pretty cliche moments that gave me a bit of the cringe. I think this could've certainly 100% benefited from more depth regarding the world building. Perhaps the world building was sacrificed to keep the pacing quick? Just a guess. Also, the lack of consistency of character for the FMC was really evident and so she feels quite illogical at times.
Overall, this was a fun and enjoyable read that hit the spot well enough for me. That ending certainly has me impatiently pining for book 2!
