Yes indeed, its a very badly grown Dracaena marginata.
I kind of like it the way it is. 'Properly' grown ones look like
regykar ol' houseplants. This one has an interesting sculptural/Seuss
quality that makes it interesting.
Look again, Buckwheat.
Dracaena marginata never looks like a "regykar ol' houseplant" with its
narrow red margined leaves and reptilian prominent leaf scars on the stems.
Maybe you have never seen a well grown large specimen.
Nope, not in the flesh. I looked at pictures on the web. Found one
other sculptural one, and several that appeared to be well-treated. I
like the Seuss ones.
