    Just a 'hello' to introduce myself. I am trying to help a friend identify a houseplant that has another forum baffled. Will post a picture of it when I figure out how to do it on this forum. Hope to learn a ton of stuff here. My hubby is a landscape gardener & want to get caught up with his knowledge ( and more ) on plants! green_sleeves4 :)

    Hello Green Sleeves,

    Welcome to the forums. I hope we can identify that plant for you. I am curious to see the image now. Here is a link to the "how to" on attaching images:

    Thanks for the link. The person that wanted me to find out what type of plant she has ended up taking it to a nursery & it was identified as a 'Dracaena' ! So, mystery plant is ID'd.
    On to search out a source for a red flowing Dogwood!! Do you know of a souce on Van. Island near Nanaimo? green_sleeves4

    If you don't find any locally at Green Thumb or Long Lake, try Dinters just south of Duncan.
