Beware of so-called tree experts who do not understand tree biology.
Storms, fires, floods, earthquakes, and volcanic eruptions keep reminding us
that we are not the boss.

I live in southern california - sunny and not too much humidity. I
have a spot in the corner of my bedroom which has a large window to
the west and one to the north. I had a dracaena there which was doing
super well until it recently took a dive and dried up for no apparent
reason! Anyway, I'd like to replace it with a very hearty plant (in
other words, less sensitive to changes in climate, watering, etc.) Any
suggestions? I'd like it to be as full as possible and ideally, at
least five feet tall.

Thanks!
