I'm kinda leaning to this one, great as the other one is!

This one is more manageable for a smaller yard. In the tropics this tree grows very large to 66ft/20m tall.

Here's a little more info., if you're interested:

Thanks!
Think that I'll have to stick to the common Dracanea for now!

Dracaena definitely stays a more manageable size.
