I’m in zone 9b (SoCal). I have a North facing, covered balcony, but I love succulents! I propagate everything and I like “saving” neglected plants.

Dracaena marginata

Trying to #propagate this #dracena piece. It had some roots starting from sitting in water, but the top is so dry it’s hollow. I used some root boost so hopefully it will establish and grow some branches. #prop-it-like-its-hot #fingers-crossed

Time to plant two of these guys. The other never grew any roots, so I cut it very short and put it back in some fresh water to try again. #draceana #roots #propagation #indoor #houseplant

Trying to root these guys. Two have roots starting and it’s been a few weeks already. They are also getting yellow leaves. I think they don’t like tap water. #draceana #rooting #waterpropagation
