Dracaena fragrans by pyrrhula

Dracaena fragrans

I know, it`s a very ordinary plant in some parts in the world , but that this plant ( we have it more then 25 years growing in a flower box in our livingroom) is blooming in our house( in Holland ) is special. Have done it before 3 times . To morrow I`ll show the complete flower . There is something nasty about this flower , they are dripping on the floor something liquid and smell very intensive. After a time you need fresh air. The flower gets open at evening/nigth time and the smell begin On day time they get closed. Real some different as tullips
Lovely shot. I would put the smelly flower outside!!!!

You must take very good care of this plant for it to last 25 years! I don't think I've ever seen one before. Very interesting!
