    Hi Michael F, Thanks for your reply. After you giving me what you think are names for my three houseplants, I 'Googled' those names,
    #1 (Ficus benjamina.) It says its a 'Weeping Fig' and It looks like what you said.
    #2 (Schefflera arboricola (a variegated cultivar of it). Its an 'Umbrella Plant'
    #3 (A Dracaena species.) I found out it is very like a picture i have seen of a 'Dragon Tree' as when looked at closely it has red edges.
