I believe that this is the wild-form (plain green leaves) of D. fragrans as others had suggested. Please use this instead of my previous ID of D. deremensis.

Earlier relevant feedback: “It looks like Dracaena fragrance. Promila” ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: sibdas ghosh <[email protected]> Date: 6 February 2010 22:23 Subject: [efloraofindia:27295] Dracaena once again To: indiantreepix <[email protected]> I had already sent the first photo of the Dracaena, it was in bud state, Two days back I took the second photo of the same plant, in the second you find it in full bloom. In the evening whole premise was full of a madenning scent given out of the small flowers, it persisted upto the morning, then no odour came out, in the following evening again the premise was full of that hypnotizing scent, somewhat like the Hasnu hana- Rat ki Rani. A small twig of that plant I collected from somewhere near Siliguri, in the foot hill of the Himalays about 8 years back, I kept it in flower vase, first a small one then transfered to a large, after a year I transferred it to soil in Prantik, in Santiniketan> After 8 years I got the first bloom> The Plant is now about 15 ft high. I have seen different Dracaena species, bout none of them is so tall. Can one suggest the species? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "efloraofindia" group.
