Propagating my dragon tree. I know from previous attempts the cuttings will take off but are the roots/base worth my time? Will it take off?  
I hated doing this but it was too tall and outgrew my house.

Don’t water much while it has no foliage….

Good luck!

I’m doing the same thing! But my cutting is struggling 😢 she was so sad before, maybe she just isn’t strong enough to make it. I hope so. And I hope the stump grows too. Fingers crossed for both of us.
