Probably a Dracaena marginata?

Why don't people just find someone to give a plant to, instead of doing that! :dontknow:

Indeed. That is as bad as leaving queen palms in the ground. 😯
OK, I confess. I left a beautiful Hibiscus rosa-sinensis I've had for years in the ground a little too long this October and it looks much worse. 😳
Maybe we could start a plant version of the Humane Society and offer shelter for neglected or abused exotic plants?

people are crazy. There is no way thats going to survive outside. :wav:

I spray painted my queen palms green, they look fabulous. I might even decorate them for the holiday. My neighbor is in awe at how they are still green...LOL

Take a photo for us.

...and you mentioned "Humanity"????? :confused2:

I don't think I could stand to look at that picture.
It might be a felony 😆 😆 😆

I had a good pic for this topic, but I can't seem to find it... So here's the description: The picture is of a 5' palm trunk, the leaves have been trimmed off, the palm dumped out of its pot. The carcass was then dumped along the side of a trail beside Centenial park here in Toronto. My guess it that the plant was left outdoors over the winter, the leaves trimmed in spring, then the carcass dumped when they realized it would not come back. Now, I don't know about where you live, but a 5' Trachycarpus fortunei is not a small investment in my neck of the woods... Did I mention that the trunk is clearly a Trachy? personally, if I want an annual palm, I'm going to choose something that is 1) Cheap. 2) Tropical looking. 3) Less coarse!

Grateful you couldn't find that pic, Paul
...don't see how anyone could do that with all the info available at the click of a mouse!

How thrilled any of us would have been to receive it as a gift by that owner 😐

Here it is...So it is a little "greener" than most living things outside this time of year. I think It works...and the neighbors are amazed at how hardy it is! LOL
