Hi all
I have a dragon palm (Dracena something or other) of great sentimental value. In the past, it's been left out a bit late and lost its lower leaves to frost nip, so it now has 3 long bare stems with a few leaves right on the top of each. If I cut off the top foot or so of one (or all) of these stems, will new leaves grow on the cuts stems? If I do this, can I do it on all stems, or should I do one at a time and allow it to recover? (It doesn't have many leaves at the moment anyway and is not looking too healthy...)
Thanks for any suggestions.
Cheers,
Giles
