Hi! I have had my Dracaena Marginata for probably 5-10 years. Now I am wondering if it is dying of old age. For the last few months, one of the branch tips is dying out and sad looking. The leaves on this branch are also drooping. The other branches and leaves are perky and continue to have new growth, although one of them is now starting to look a little distressed. I have it in a South window, water it regularly, and just last week did a complete change of dirt, as I wanted to check out the roots and see if there was something going on. There was a large rock that the roots had been growing around, as my husband suggested it would take up space in the large pot so I didn't need so much dirt. I removed the rock and repotted the plant with new potting soil, and filled in the root area that was shaped around the rock. I am just not sure if I should just cut this branch off . . . I never propagated my dracaenas - I don't want to kill the whole thing!
I have attached a picture of the problem (click it for a full view) - I would sure appreciate any helpful advise. I love my plants, especially this one as it has always been so hearty.
Thanks for any help!
