I Want To Propagate A Dracaena But Have Questions

Question

We have a species of dracaena. It was a clipping that we propagated several years ago and it has grown well. But now it is 4’ tall and thin. We want to make it branch out. The original plant was given to my mother in law when my husband was born 60 years ago. It is paramount that I do not kill this plant as it is symbolic of my husband’s life and his mother! Help, any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Answer 1

This article tells how you can cut off the top of the plant to help it branch and you can start a new plant with the cutting:
