Hey Herm;
        'Dragons' on Rohdeas are fairly common, but this is the first time
I have heard of one in Sans. Do the pups on your Sans. also show dragons?
Does this plant produce leaf cuttings with dragons on the younguns?
        There are some Rohdeas where the leaves are all 'dragons' -no flat
surface around.
        Is this plant a slow grower?
