    I purchased this plant to give as a gift for a funeral, and want to be able to tell the person who ends up with it how to safely care for it. I believe it is a pot of three young Dracaena marginata from what I've found on this site so far. Can someone confirm this or tell me what else it is instead?
    Thank you so much! This appears to be an excellent site and I've run across nothing but great and helpful threads.
    I really want to be sure whoever gets this plant will know how to care for it to keep it healthy!

    Looks like Dracaena fragrans 'Lemon Lime' (syn. Dracaena deremensis 'Lemon Lime').

    Thanks - at least that'll tell me how it needs taken care of. The person most likely to get the plant hasn't taken care of houseplants, and I want her to be able to keep this one healthy, especially since it's for her mother's funeral.
    Really appreciate the ID!
