Dracaena once again

[sibdas ghosh]

I had already sent the first photo of the Dracaena, it was in bud
state, Two days back I took the second photo of the same plant, in the
second you find it in full bloom. In the evening whole premise was
full of a madenning scent given out of the small flowers, it persisted
upto the morning, then no odour came out, in the following evening
again the premise was full of that hypnotizing scent, somewhat like
the Hasnu hana- Rat ki Rani.

A small twig of that plant I collected from somewhere near Siliguri,
in the foot hill of the Himalays about 8 years back, I kept it in
flower vase, first a small one then transfered to a large, after a
year I transferred it to soil in Prantik, in Santiniketan> After 8
years I got the first bloom> The Plant is now about 15 ft high. I have
seen different Dracaena species, bout none of them is so tall. Can one
suggest the species?

I believe that this is the wild-form (plain green leaves) of D. fragrans as others had suggested. Please use this instead of my previous ID of D. deremensis.
