Episode 223 - Dracaena Fragrans III

Too busy recently.  But here it is!

Episode 222 - Dracaena Fragrans II

Recent pictures of the plant. It is expected that it will flower within the next few days. Will post new photos.

To avoid an attack from Miao Miao the cat (who loves to pick flowers), we moved the plant to another room.

Episode 221 Dracaena Fragrans

Can you see the flower bud?

I purchased this Dracaena Fragrans for Gogo a few years ago in the flower market. In Hong Kong it is called Brazilian Iron Tree.

It was then just a segment of stem - cutting out from the stem of a large Dracaena Fragrans tree - with a few leaf buds only and had no root at all. Gogo wished to keep it so we bought it home.

We first kept it in a vase with some water. The plant grew larger with leaves and roots developed. We then transferred it to the soil.

It appears to be rare and unusual for a Dracaena Fragrans flowers in winter.
