( photo / image / picture from K's Garden )



I acquired this plant and need help identifying it. Looks like its having a sun or water issue. So I’d like to find out what it is, I could give it the proper care.

It has what seem to be many separate stalks with groups of leaves at the top of each. Leaves are about 5ā€ – 8ā€ long, narrow to medium width. Mostly green with red on the bottom of leaves, and trim the top of the leaves.

I thank you for your help.

Frank, it tripled for me every time I looked at it if that helps...from 1 to 3 to 9 and so on.

Also, I have the same plant so I would like to know too.

Hey Flowerfreak22, Glad to hear somebody else has the same plant. What do you think about (calinromania) in stating "it looks like a red dracaena, or Cordyline terminalis."?

To me i don't see a resemblance in the google images of "red dracaena". I do however think it does looks very similar to the images of "cordyline terminalis". However in most of the pictures i see, the leafs seem to bloom all the way down each stem/branch. As where mine seems to only bloom at the top of each stem/branch.

What do you think? You think (calinromania) may have locked it down for us?

Thanks,
~K
