Dracaena sebeiorum

A succulent Dracaena name that GBIF cannot match and that has no usable wild records. It is most likely a recently described or transferred species from the former Sansevieria group. The epithet seems to refer to the Sebei people of Mount Elgon, which would place it on the Uganda–Kenya border, but that is unconfirmed. Treat this as a generic guide for East African dryland snake-plant-type Dracaena.

Where it grows wild

Not documented. Succulent East African Dracaena (ex-Sansevieria) usually grow in dry bushland and rocky ground, often in the partial shade of shrubs.

Unknown. If it is from the Mount Elgon area, the lower dry slopes there lie at roughly 1,000–1,800 m.
