Identification: indoor palm identification

Need help in identifying this indoor palm like tree.

Single stalk/trunk. Stands approx. 5'. Leaves 2-3" width, up to 24" in length.

 

Nolina recurvata "Ponytail Palm".... I think.

 

Not a ponytail palm (Nolina/Beaucarnea). Apart from trunk swollen at base its leaves are not 2-3 in wide and they are more finely tapering at tips.

I wonder if Dracaena draco grown in poor light might not look like this?

 

...hmm...could be a dracaena marginata... check this out http://www.dracaena.com/forms/marginata/

 

I never saw a D. marginata with leaves 2-3 in wide.

 

it is a type of plant called a cordyline. most people think of hawaiian ti plant but they have alot of variety. this one is calle dcordyline indivisa i believe, people always confuse it witha dereceana and callit a dragon tree too
