Dragon Tree info - August 6th, 2005 at 10:16 AM
This thread caught my eye over in "Mystery plants", and I'm totally fascinated with this tree. I was hoping to get more info on it, especially its growing habits. Does it take a lot of pruning and tending to go from this:
4 months old
to this:
4 years old
Also, I'm wondering just how easily it reseeds itself-I don't mind plucking a few seedlings now and then, but I don't want to be fighting with it continuously.
Other than these two concerns, it seems like the perfect tree for my otherwise tree-less yard: fast growing, tall, pretty flowers.
Oh ya-one more question: when is good to plant? I've only read about them being planted in the spring, but can you plant in the fall or late summer even? Thanks for any info!
