It would have been nice to see the update of this plant propagation to know if it really worked.

I never knew this is how these plants could be done. I am amazed and pleased at the same time. Thank you so much for these tips.

Delightful video. Loved the very manual camera adjustments! Thank you!

I like how you do your videos short and to-the-point and you are a very peaceful person and it's and it's enjoyable to watch your videos

I have owned one of these for over 20 years and it’s now well over 8ft tall with three shoots off one stem. I had no idea I could just prune it back like that. It really, REALLY needs done but I’m terrified I’ll kill it. It was tiny when I first got it and I’ve had it longer than my kids! I guess I’ll just have to be brave and deal with it. I’m running out of room for it.

can you do a video of before and after...esspecially after, so we can see how much it grows :)

Thank you for this video. I'm in Southern Michigan, USA. I have a dracaena that is getting overgrown, your video is the clearest that I found on how to prune it. I was very nervous about cutting it back but as soon as the weather warms up I'm going to permanent based on your suggestions. thank you.

You’ve just answered all my questions! Thanks. Love from Ireland 💕

Thanks so much for this video - very easy to follow. My Dracena plant has grown to over 5', with a bushy top, but about 5' of just trunk! I had a little shoot near the top. Because of your video, I'm not afraid to make several cuttings, and continue to enjoy the dracaena, which was a plant from my late Mom's. thanks again!!!

This is great! I have one of these and it got very leggy but I never thought that there was something to do about it :) Although it's scary to cut it up like that haha I might consider doing it. A before and after vid as suggested by others would be super nice. Thanks for your work :)

Exactly the information I hoped to find! Thank you for the tips; my plant is now a mere four inches from the ceiling, so is ready to become a group rather than one lonely, lanky fellow.

Lord I covered my mouth in horror when you were cutting at the plant and yanking off the leaves!! 😩😭😱 would love to see a follow up on how these got on 🙂

thank you for sharing this vid, im partially sighted so watching your steps has made me decide i will split my trees as you have shown great.

Interesting. I didn't know I could do that with my Draecanas. Thanks!!!

Thank you so much for your time, I never knew it was that easy. 😂I LOVE KZfaq🤣I have a few Draceana that have been with me for many moons & have grown taller then me🤣✌🏾

perfect info and presentation. Thank you!

My neighbor gave me one and a few months after planting outside (Tampa, FL area) it has a baby plant coming up next to it. Growing really well.

Wow i had no clue this could be done! thank u for sharing. I just added a marginata to my plant family. m excited to see how it grows.

I appreciate you sharing your videos❤❤❤❤12:23 in the morning and I feel like gardening😂😂😂😂

This is EXACTLY what I was looking for. One of four planted in the same pot got root rot, the obvious signs started with yellowing leaves but I thought it was possibly the close proximity to our gas-powered wall heater but then noticed only one of them were losing leaves and, the worst sign, very bottom of the stem closest to the soil is mushy. Was thinking I could just cut all the dead leaves then straight up chop halfway up the stem and check the others roots for rot. Thank you for encouraging my experiment!!!

wow i can't believe how you do this. mine has grown almost to the celining! sure hope if i clip it it will do what you say it will. thans

Very nice video! Very informative and hands on! Would love to see more on tropical plant care! I just moved to Florida so I’m very anxious to get started!

Without an update, we have no idea if your propagation technique works.

Wow how cool! I just rescued an overwatered one at lowes it’s 6 feet tall for $20.00 I will do this. Thanks!

Just cut my over-grown and crooked plant! Thanks for the information. I never knew you could propagate dracaena

Super helpful video, thank you!!Going to try propagating today and I’m excited to see how my marginata will grow!! 😊

First time I see a well explained video thank you

Thank you for such concise and precise tips. Loved this

I think I have this tree. It was about 18” tall a little less than 3 years ago. It’s 10’ tall now and only has one stalk and I have it outside on the front porch. It’s only getting afternoon sun but we live in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. Thanks for your advice on how I should prune it

Very helpful thank you 🙏

Thank you so much 😊,,,,,from Russia 🇷🇺 with Love ❤️

Thanks so much! Very informative. Love from Chicago!

This was so helpful !

Thank you for putting this vid up. I now know how to👍🏻

Awesome! Thank you so much for sharing you're knowledge on dracaenas. X

Thank you...easy to follow and straight forward.

*Very nice* 👍

Can you do updates of how they grow in videos for people who want to understand the growing , what it looks like and such . :) Thank you .

wow this is so interesting thank you so much!

Thank you!! I was so worried I'd have to toss mine after the top half broke!

Thank you! Off to go pruning now...

Loved everything about this video. Very informative, you clearly enjoy what you do. Thank you for sharing. I came to KZfaq because I received a bouquet of roses with a dracaena plant into the mix. The roses died off, but the dracaena is still strong, so I am going to try your tips and hope it will work with my free plant😁. Thanks again.

Thank you, great video, answered all my questions!!!

Excellent information. Thank you !

I just a got a tall one for free and was so excited and the top broke as soon as I got it home and I’m trying to savage it. I hope this works

These plants have a pretty massive root system, I wish you would have shown how you deal with that. I just repotted one that I've had for a while and I just whacked off about half their roots. I hope I haven't killed it.

All I can say is awersome and I'll do that on the weekend

Awesome video

Aaaawesome ! Thank your Now off to prune my mother in laws plant. 😳

Thanks so much. Hi from QLD.

well i didnt know u could do this! Thanks do much for the advice !

Wow so beautiful

I literally screamed when I saw you cutting it

thanks to sharing informations about dracaena with us.Thank you so much

This was awesome thank you so helpful

that was great, thank you!

thank you

Thanks for sharing. 💛

Great tips, thank you!

Very good video! Thx!

Thank you. I have one that's 3 feet tall and now I know I can make more plants!

I'm in my mid 20s and have a dozen house plants or so.. Great videos, thank you for the tips! Quick question for this one specifically: when (what season) should this be done during? Spring? Anytime? It's winter here now in Ontario (Canada), and my Draceana is potted, kept inside at temp of around 19-24 celcius. Side note if it changes anything, I will be buying a humidifier for my living room where most of my plants are. I've had it for over 5 years, and have been "looping" the stem/cane as it grows, which was interesting, but I now want to propagate it & have the original re-start from the getgo. Thank you for your time. Sincerely

When do you start watering them once planted the cuttings? I am assuming they'd need to be in shade until they show new growth? I usually use soft wood rooting hormone gel for succulents so would I be using hard wood one for Draceanas? Thanks in advance.

Exactly what I've been looking for my Dracena at work if all leggy and about 7 ft tall. Poor things not going to know what's hit it🤣

Thanks for that information. Will try.

Thanks so much for that video! I can't wait to dry it on my dracaena!

Thank you very helpful

So helpful thank you

Thank you. Currently struggling with my Dragon tree. Started of well but now the leaves are continously falling.

Thanks a bunch!

Thanks for this. I have one of these that's 20 feet tall in my house in Minnesota. I'm out of room. I wonder how many trees i can get from propagating?!?!

Thanks for sharing

Very nice

Wish me luck! We are going to do this with mine today!

I enjoyed watching your video! Ypu are cute..Thanks for sharing

Oh thank you for sharing this tip i have A darcaema marginata and the leaves goes brown wich makes me.sad i don'T know wat i'Ve done wrong ..now im gonna replant theese ..hopfully they recovr soon..

Hi...so we basically cut the branch...and just plant it in the soil? We dont need to put it in water so it creates roots? I will be more than happy if you answer. Thanks😘

I did this to my dracaena a few months back and she is dying.They did not do well at all.i propagated in water also and she also died.

Thank you so much for this vedio great 👍👍👍

I put the cuttings and mother in the same pot.

Have to do this... it's grown over 10ft and didn't want to kill it.

I just topped my 40 year old one. My mum got it for an engagement present. I hope the top survives! Then it will be able to continue continuously growing taller. It's pretty terrifying cutting something that is so old and has sentimental value. It feels like it's part of the family. The top had a lot of leaves. It probably has about 500mm of stem with leaves and I left about 300 mm below the leaves. What's the likelihood it'll survive? They sound pretty hardy

How do they grow with no roots, can you show some that you've grown this way and it's progress regarding growth and not dieing off, ty❤

very interesting, thanks a lot!

Thank you. Had no idea.. please, some guidance of care once the Stems are rooted. In the light? Dark? Frequency of watering? Thank you

Thanks for your excellent easy to follow instructions. Hopefully I will be as successful as you. Thanks! One question I have is, how do your dracaena plants that are in the ground outside handle winter? I live in the mid Atlantic region of the US and while unpredictable our winters can be quite cold. Appreciate your advice.

Thank you!

2:55 That’s what I said, Lisa. “Foilage!”

Wow

Hi, awesome video! Know any good ways to promote (buds/spikes) growth after cutting?? My 4.5 ft tall plant grew straight up for 2 years, cut it back few weeks ago... the top half seems to be happy; leaves are doing ok. But the mother plant/ bottom half hasn't produced any little buds yet nearing a month later, and the roots are huge! Im afraid it's dying cause of shock... I repotted it to a a larger pot as well the same day. Lmk what you think? Thanks-

Thanks

And, snip, cut. No mercy! ;-)

I've been wondering what to do with our sad looking Dracaena plant. It was the first house plant that we bought and we've had it for a long time but it's terrible leggy now. I know now to turn the pots regularly to avoid it growing too much in one direction but I found this out a bit too late for this one. I was worried it was going to have to be put out to pasture but looks like I will wait until spring and then give this a go.

Hello Regina, I'm so happy to come across your video. I recently had a tree branch fall on my Dracaena and split it in half. Thanks to your video, I will cut the three fallen branches down to size and replant them. I do have a few questions though. (1). Where the tree branch hit, it tore a bit of the bark on the main trunk that the three branches were on. I strapped it back in place using some small rubber hose with a zip tie through it to hold it together. Will doing this work to heal the main stem/trunk or should I cut it all down and start over. The plant still looks nice, even with the missing branches. (2). I live in Orlando, Florida, USA. We are coming up on the 2022 Fall/Winter season. Will this have any effect on the new growth taking root? It is obviously an outside plant in a big heavy pot and hard to move. I can do the new shoots inside in smaller pots and repot them outside in the spring. We rarely see weather below freezing. (0 Celsius) Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks for posting.

AMEI esse vídeo agradeço muito

Show the results after a few months please, so we can see if it worked!

@ To know more about this plant then watch this video Thanks

Cuando se riegan luego de poner los cortes? La tierra estaba seca no? Espero una semana aproximadamente?

I have a plant that's a good 5 meters high in my back yard it's a beast. I have rip it out for a Reno, can I propgate large limbs directly into the ground of a new garden bed?

I repotted my plant and the leaves are turning yellow. Is the plant dying or is this normal with repotting? If no, Can I save the plant?
