Have never seen this plant bloom. Have trimmed it back several times and keeps going strong. Had it for years and still have no idea what it is. Identify plant ( photo / image / picture from Natedogg299's Garden )
Do you have a photo which would make it easier to identify? Lots of plants have the potential to fit your description. Welcome to the Stew
I think it might be a corn plant. My friend has one that actually bloomed and it smelled heavenly!! Not real pretty flowers though :-?
Some kind of Dracaena, maybe 'Janet Craig compacta' or Sanderiana without stripes. Looks like it could use a bit more light, but very pretty!!
Hi Georgimz, welcome to Stew! Corn plant is a common common name for Dracaena (note spelling) fragrans. I believe that's what was meant by that suggestion. Hopefully Nate will have the opportunity to investigate these suggestions soon and confirm one, or ask for others.
I have checked all of the suggestions and they still don't match what i have. Thank you for the help!
Etiolation from insufficient light can make plants difficult to recognize but a specific name often isn't necessary to provide excellent care. Obviously you've been doing that, Nate, to have this plant around for so long and looking pretty good. It might look more like plants in pics if it had a bit more light (if possible,) turned a little more often so it stays more upright. I'm pretty sure it's a Dracaena, as was everyone else who responded, but that one pic isn't a whole lot to go on. Would you like to add another pic or two? Dracaenas do not bloom often 'in captivity,' some never. There are many different kinds, about 40 species and multitudes of cultivars for each of many of the species. I've never seen any kind of Dracaena bloom in person.
