Dracaena steudneri, the northern large-leaved dragon-tree, is a species of flowering plant in the family Asparagaceae, found from Ethiopia to southern tropical Africa. It is being investigated for its high-quality fiber content. It is fed upon by larvae of the bush nightfighter, Artitropa erinnys. In the past the name Dracaena steudneri was erroneously assigned to the well-known ornamental and house plant Dracaena fragrans, called the cornstalk dracaena, striped dracaena, compact dracaena, and corn plant, leading to much confusion.
