Thank you for the replies! I had received answers on another forum that told me the same thing, Dracaena Fragrans. I'm glad to hear it does well in vivs.

Ironically, I was at my brother in laws house the other day and he has one in a pot. The thing was huge! Must have been 3 feet tall. I'm glad they are slow growers! He didn't know what it was either and just called it a pineapple plant, lol. So now he knows too!

Thanks again.

No , Dracaena Fragrans here in the Wikipedia is different than what you have in the picture , it is another plant smaller .. you can make search by Google and you will see , I don't know the scientific name of the plant I think it is type of succulents ..

That is because this is a juvenile specimen. Given enough time it will start to look like that. That being said, there are a lot of variation within the cultivars of this species including leaf width, length and coloration
