There are 12 shoots flowering on my plant at the moment so, as you can
imagine, the scent is quite overpowering. It is right outside the kitchen
windows.
Your plant has become quite tall & is bending over towards the light, hence
the almost horizontal flower.
Next spring, you should cut it off about 18" from the base. It will soon get
2 or 3 new shoots. The rest of the plant can then be cut into 18" lengths (I
think you will have enough for 3 or 4), each treated with a rooting hormone
(Seradix) at the base & potted. Move them all nearer the window. Then you
will have a dracaena mini forest. If you give them all some plant pot
fertilizer & keep them well watered, there is no reason why they couldn't
all flower this time next year

ah thanks, Alan! - nice.. looks quite similar to mine, but I note
it doesn't bend down.
My living room is still heavy with fragrance.. in fact, it
is now permeating the entire apartment.
I trust you saw, or will look at the Dracaena GESO ..
I finally set up tri-pod and used a verilux floor lamp for lighting
so I could use slower film... the last photo in the series is
my favorite that I took.
