Oh I have just recently divided mine..so they are small again
And if they are kept in a smaller container, they will pretty much limit their growth in that container. I think it will be a nice thing to do later on for them..divide and share as it goes.
Dracaena sanderiana is another plant you can consider. Just stick them in a glass container with water gel beads and survives well indoors. The water gel beads takes awhile to shrink, so as long as it is plump no watering needed.
Coleus is nice but I have seen them grow really huge too and very water needy in my dry area..so not sure how much care the recipients will accord them.
