About Trey Tarrant
Expertise
I can answer questions about plant identification, plant care, plant pest management, landscaping, and general gardening questions. Please post a picture of the plant you wish to identify, if possible. If you say something like, "I've got this plant and it's green with long leaves and white flowers" and do not include a picture, chances are I won't be able to help you. I may not be able to help with plants that are not grown in the Southeast/ Eastern US, but you're welcome to try me.

Experience
Landscaping for 10 years. Horticulture Instructor at Lawson State Community College for 7 years.

Education/Credentials
M.S. in Horticulture from Auburn University.

Identifying Unknown Plants - What is the plant?


Expert: Trey Tarrant - 3/3/2009

Question
Hi Trey
Just moved into a new house with this strange looking plant in the back garden. I have young children and wanted to check it's 'friendlyness'.
Appreciate your help on what type of plant it is. Tnaks S:)

Answer
I wouldn't think that Dracaenas grow outdoors in Dublin, as they are damaged at temperatures under 40F, so I'm not all that confident in my answer.  But they do look like Dracaenas to me.  I suppose you could just ask around if Dracaenas grow there.
