Any Gardeners here?
« on: 04 September 2008, 22:06:03 »

Any idea what these things are called.

Dunno if the browns one has issues or is its natural colour.

Dont even know whether to class them as plants, bushes or tree's.  loL

Also want to know if they could be dug up and moved easily.?

TIA.   :y

Could be .. Cordyline also known as the "Cabbage Palm" ...

I see from that link that it used to be called a dracaena .. probably where the old book got it from .... must get some new gardening books I suppose !!!
