Dracaena aubrytiana 'Lauren' – Variegated Snake Plant with Bold Yellow Stripes

Dracaena (Sansevieria) aubrytiana 'Lauren' is a cultivar of Dracaena aubrytiana (Carrière) Byng and Christenh., formerly classified under Sansevieria. Belonging to the family Asparagaceae, this variety is instantly recognizable by its wide golden-yellow leaf margins that frame a deep green center. The sword-shaped leaves form upright clumps, creating a strong architectural look. Easy to grow and strikingly colorful, 'Lauren' has become a staple for both collectors and beginners who want a decorative but low-maintenance houseplant.

Signature Traits of Dracaena 'Lauren'

  • Leaf Pattern: Wide yellow-gold edges surrounding a rich green midline.
  • Form: Upright, sword-like leaves emerging in dense clumps.
  • Size: Typically 40 – 70 cm tall indoors, with slow but steady growth.
  • Ornamental Value: Provides strong contrast and vibrant color in any interior.

Botanical Background

Dracaena aubrytiana is native to tropical West Africa. Once treated as a form of Dracaena trifasciata, it is now recognized as a distinct species. Cultivars such as 'Lauren' emphasize the species’ natural variegation, offering bold yellow-gold margins not seen in the plain green wild type. Its resilience and decorative appeal have made it a popular choice for interior design and collections.

Light, Water, and Soil Preferences

  • Light: Thrives in bright, indirect light; tolerates shade but with reduced color vibrancy.
  • Watering: Extremely drought-tolerant; water sparingly and allow soil to dry completely.
  • Soil: Use a free-draining succulent or cactus mix.
  • Temperature: Best between 18 – 27 °C; protect from frost and cold drafts.
  • Fertilizer: Feed lightly with diluted succulent fertilizer during the growing season.

Care Tips and Considerations

  • Overwatering Risk: The main cause of decline; soggy soil leads to root rot.
  • Growth Speed: Naturally slow; new leaves emerge gradually from rhizomes.
  • Pests: Rare, but mealybugs or spider mites may appear under stress.
  • Toxicity: Like other Dracaena, toxic to pets if ingested.

Why Collectors Value 'Lauren'

Dracaena aubrytiana 'Lauren' stands out among variegated snake plants for its bold yellow margins and clean green center. Its foliage creates a dramatic vertical accent, combining toughness with showpiece quality. Collectors prize it for its ornamental variation, while casual growers appreciate its easy care and resilience.

Name and Meaning

The genus name Dracaena comes from the Ancient Greek δράκαινα (drakaina), meaning “female dragon,” in reference to the red resin (“dragon’s blood”) produced by some species. The epithet aubrytiana commemorates the French botanist Aubryti, connected to early collections of the species.

Works well. You need to drill a 3/8” hole
Appears to be well made, alignment bar slides in nicely. As stated, you need to drill a hole in the bar for the gimble bearing driver, the directions are not clear, what I did was before I take out the old gimble bearing, put an O ring on the bar close to the last step on the bar, slide the bar all the way in, then carefully slide the bar out, this marks the distance from the back of the gimble bearing to where the shaft on the outdrive bottoms out, move the O ring a 1/4” towards the stepped part of the alignment tool (this is so you won’t bottom out the alignment tool when driving the gimble bearing in) then slide the driver puck up to the O ring and use a 3/8” diameter transfer punch through the side hole in the puck to mark the bar. You need to drill a 3/8” diameter hole in the alignment bar, two V blocks, some clamps, and a drill press will make drilling much easier, after the bar is securely mounted and centered in the drill press, use a center drill, then 1/4” drill first, using plenty of oil, drill all the way through, then use the 3/8” drill, deburr both sides and you should be good to go. People complain that it doesn’t come pre-drilled, the reason is that not all out drives are the same so you have to fit it to the outdrive that you have. Fortunately, I have a machine shop at my house and have a jig setup with various drill bushings, but the method I described above should work for you. Just make sure you’re perfectly centered and secure before you start drilling.

Worked for Volvo Penta SX Gimbal Bearing
Very heavy tool, I was surprised. Pulled my bearing like it was nothing. Putting the new bearing in was a little more difficult as you have to drill a hole in the engine alignment shaft where it will work for your particular outdrive. Not hard, but it does not come pre-drilled as the required depth for each particular gimbal bearing differs by manufacturer and model. Measure your bearing placement before removal and check that it was installed correctly in the first place. The bearing should line up with the grease fitting and the o-rings on the drive shaft should end up riding in the middle of the bearing. once you have your measurement drill the hole, I used a drill press. I suppose you could use it on multiple outdrive models as long as you can drill more holes.

Great value
This kit worked perfectly on my Alpha one mercury outdrive. I saw a lot of people mention that it was a hassle to drill the hole when you better have all this alignment stuff. I threw it in use my regular drill drill guide and then the second hole was lined up. Pulling Gimble be very easy. I did have to adjust it up at an angle because my bearing was sitting in their crooked and it came out the second time I made the adjustment to the angle. I would highly recommend this.

Unfinished product - doesn't work - waste of money
in order to use this as an installation tool the directions tell you to drill a hole through the 2 inch steel rod..... either this hole should already be drilled, or this should not be advertised as an installation tool..... it will not install any bearings without extensive modification and requires the use of a drill press or a lathe. very dissatisfied that I now have to buy ANOTHER tool just to finish this job because this one doesn't do what it's described to do.... piece of junk... typical amazon garbage.... this is why I haven't used amazon in over a year... they rip you off with garbage.... I should have known better .... don't buy this junk .... Now they say 20 -30 days to get my refund .... Don't waste your time
