Lemon grass has a very distinctive scent. Crush one of the leaves and give it the sniff test. :-) Rosie Here is a link that might be useful: Lemon Grass

The cactus seems to be Echinopsis subdenudata, Easy to grow (lots of light but less water than leafy plants) and already flowering size! Won't flower in winter but certainly next spring/summer with about 8" long white and very fragrant flowers which only last from late afternoon through late morning of next day. Enjoy it. Jordi

This is blunt and to the point: Put the large round table in storage. You don't have room for it and in the living room it is too much. The children can draw or play games in the kitchen. Don't want to trash it? Buy a glass top, a vinyl table cloth. Also, that huge bench wedged under the piano. Can you get a real piano bench? It looks odd under there. Like there was no other place to put it. You say in your old house you had a separate office and loved it. But now you have a tiny little desk and a big desk. Is that going to really be practical? Lose the tiny little desk completely and keep the one you have. I know you love your things, but the fact is you don't have room for them all. The rooms are way too small and all of that makes it claustrophic. You have so many pieces it is like a furniture store.

Yes it's a Dracena and a very nice one for just $2.00. It will grow wonderful in warm and humid areas with bright light but not direct sun, loves damp (the soil just sticks a bit to your finger when you push it into the dirt) but not wet soil and if you are keeping it inside rotate it every few days at least or it will grow toward the light source. Oh right!, one more thing, try to remember to dust off the leaves once in a while also. They breath through the leaves and if they get to dusty the leaves turn thin and brown and the plant will die. ~~~~heavy sigh~~~~ I wish someone had told me little bit of info. LIL
