Fixed up a bit of a 20 year old terrace and planted a Dracaena draco that I've had in a 6" pot since 2016.  Man was it root bound.  LOL

BTW should have mentioned that around 2000 I planted a small D. draco.  About 15 years later it flowered and I got the seeds that produced this plant.  I have one more from the same seeding that I planted out in Sept of 2019.  I'll get a photo of it tomorrow it's 820 pm right now.

That's pretty quick growth!  I'd read that they were slugs, which is why I didn't bother trying one here.  But I suppose that I read Pandanus Tectorius was a slug too at maybe 1' per year growth.  Mine went from 1' to 6' tall this year...  :D

I'm supprised as well.  Maybe the more even temps don't slow it down.  Almost NEVER gets below 60 here.  I'm a happy camper.
