growing ylang ylang indoors.

Ylang-ylang, Cananga odorata, is a small flower of the cananga tree. It is a fast-growing tree that exceeds 5 meters per year and attains an average height of 12 meters. It grows in full or partial sun, and prefers the acidic soils of its native rainforest habitat. The leaves are long, smooth and glossy. The flower is greenish yellow (rarely pink), curly like a starfish, and yields a highly fragrant essential oil. A related species is Cananga fruticosa, which is a dwarf ylang-ylang that grows as small tree or compact shrub with highly scented flowers.
Since the Cananga tree is a fast growing, 40 foot tall plant at maturity, growing it indoors isn't a real good idea unless you have very tall ceilings. It could possibly be grown using LST to lower it's height, but the shear size of the plant would make indoor growing very, very difficult.
