Got a big idea for my dracaena. Was hoping to get some feedback and advice.

Kelowna, Canada

Hi everyone! I'm pretty new here and somewhat new to the plant scene, but I'm learning quickly. I hope this is the right subforum to post this in, but if it's not I'm happy for it to be moved.

I got a couple Janet Craig Compacta dracaenas within the last couple of weeks. I hatched a plan for them last night that I think is gonna be really cool. I want to let them get to about 40-50cm/20-25", top them, replant the cuttings next to them in a trough planter and when they get tall enough I'd like to braid them.

However, I'm not entirely sure how to go about this! The only thing I know of that's relevant to this task is bonsai wire, and given the lush, dense growth of the active parts of the dracaena it might be a bit difficult to form it. How would I go about doing this and what tools do I need?

Thanks in advance! :D
