Hello all!
Here is the third and final!

I have three that are looking bad and I don’t know how to help them, and they are all in the same spot!

I have had it in shade inside my house and moved it to an east facing window just a couple of weeks ago that gets great morning sun and light all day but no change.

It is like the second one, but looks much better. It also does not flower. It has growth/grown as well, but looks bad! It is not a Bromeliad. ( I don’t think I spelt that right!) And yes I know it has fallen to the side, but before I staked it I wanted to make sure I did not need to repot it!

What is it?
Should it be in a smaller pot?
Should it be wet/moist all the time? Letting it dry out has not helped!
Should I feet it a lot of Miracle Grow?

Thanks everyone for your time and help!

Another Dracaena .... I think it might be this one. Click on this link for plant files and see if it looks like your plant:

Hi

It's a Dracaena. I've found that they like to be occasionally misted on the leaves and kept somewhat moist (only somewhat, just a little - not damp) at all times. Just good basic houseplant fertilizer is fine. It might be in too big a pot, but I don't know if I'd repot it until it has some good quality time in the new, sunnier location. Good luck.
