    We received a beautiful wicker basket with an assortment of plants. I have replanted them in their own pots, and would sure like some help figuring out what the plants names are so that I can care for them correctly.
    I've looked through some old books I have and here are my guesses on their names, let me know if you think I am even close:
    1st Dracaena warnecki
    2nd Croton codiaeum variegata pictum
    3rd one is a mystery, I don't have a clue
    4th Dieffenbachia picta "Dumb Cane"
    5th Ficus elastica "Rubber Plant''
    6th another mystery plant

    The mystery plant with the flowers is a Kalanchoe blossfeldiana, and the second mystery plant is Cordyline fruticosa , these are both very easy care plants.

    Here is a picture of the basket before I took it apart and repotted the plants.

    Thankyou for helping me name my mystery plants. Was a correct on what the other plants were or totally off-base?
