I got these a few years ago in a little assortment in a florist's arrangement for Mother's Day. They are getting bigger and spreading in their pots. I put them outdoors in the summer months in the shade.This one sends up babies near the parent plant . I will post the other one on the next message.
Here is the other one. When it was small my dog bit it in two and another plant grew from the broken part when I stuck it into some soil. It has these lance shaped leaves and a single stem and sometimes the older bottom leaves turn yellow and fall off.It is on the left. The plant on the right is another one of the first picture, that shares the pot.
They are both Dracaena's. The first is Dracaena sanderiana "Ribbon Plant" or "Lucky Bamboo", the second is Dracaena Marginata "Dragon Tree".
I am not able to copy and paste the link to Plant Files tonight for some reason but both are listed in Plant Files.
Well, this morning it's letting me copy and paste links so here goes:
