    Hi Nick! I love the way the underplanting with the dracaena turned out! Such a beautiful combination! I have a dracaena marginata that would probably look pretty underplanted. I know I'm late to watching this, but what plant/plants would you recommend to underplant with? I'm thinking maybe golden pothos, Brazil philo and a neon pothos. Do you think they would look good together? Loved seeing the pot in your room and Muffin checking them out. I really miss seeing her. Thank you so much for sharing!

    I thought the same thing! I once saved a big dracaena from the greenery recycling in my street and when I separated the two plants, the root systems on both were so substantial, I needed two big planters. Both are now thriving, after recovering from burning their leaves initially (totally my fault 🙈). @nickpileggi would you care to elaborate on that root statement?

    @@NickPileggiPlants thanks for the explanation, Nick! I guess my rescue was already quite established. The root ball even had the shape of the pot (which wasn’t around it, but clearly had been growing to fit it precisely): tall and squared off. The roots were really quite thick and juicy, but there were definitely finer ones as well.

    I really dont get the avoidance of interplanting in the hobby. I literally interplant anything and everything. Firesticks and pothos, 9 sanseveria cultivars in a pot, 6 types of Jade in a pot, Ive got multiple cactus species together, I have 160ish unique plants and only about 70 pots. It saves space, money, and adds interest.
