Corn plant (dracaena fragrans massangeana) can grow up to 10 feet or more in height. You can prune your corn plant any time of the year. Cut the cane to the desired height (but no shorter than 6 inches), and new growth will appear just below the cut.
As many plants age, the lower leaves will turn yellow and drop off as a normal part of growth. This is especially true of foliage plants like dieffenbachia and dracaena. In this case, don't worry. If the plant becomes too leggy, consider trimming back the main stem to promote new growth and bushiness. Cold drafts.
