To successfully propagate dracaena plants using cuttings in water, follow these steps:
- Cut a healthy stem from the parent plant, making sure it has at least one node.
- Place the cutting in a container of water, ensuring the node is submerged.
- Change the water every few days to prevent rot and promote root growth.
- Keep the cutting in a warm, bright location but out of direct sunlight.
- Once roots have formed, transplant the cutting into soil and continue to care for it as a new plant.
