I just looked at this thread for the 1st time. I had a plant similar to that 1st one. It was a Dracinna Warnecki (sp). My MIL had it & it was big then. She gave it to us soon after We got married in 1982. My DH & I went away for our 25th anniversary, while the kids stayed home with the dogs (kids ages 21 & 19). When we got home it was..gone. Even though it was in a large pot my son claimed the dog knocked it over & started chewing on it. He threw it all away...I bet I could have restarted something from it. My 25+ year old Gary was now gone

(we knew a "Gary" with a similar last name so I named it )
