Plant identification (2)

10 years ago

Hi, can anyone tell me what these plants are and if and how I can relocate them? I'm getting ready to put a driveway down, and there's a nice patch of these I'd like to keep...they're pleasant looking plants.

Stick a shovel in, all the way around, until it's a loose chunk. Then dig the same-shape hole where its' new home will be, insert the plug-you-dug. Plant will probably not even notice. They ARE cute!

Here are links to pictures if you can't use the first link... Sorry, I haven't figured out how to make these clickable... you can copy and paste them. Also, just to reiterate, the grass-like plant from the bulbs has *never* grown a flower, just the green grass. Thanks in advance! http://images.photo2.walgreens.com/232323232%7Ffp5337%3B%3Enu%3D3248%3E%3A37%3E8%3C%3B%3EWSNRCG%3D35%3A9333374325nu0mrj http://images.photo2.walgreens.com/232323232%7Ffp5337%3A%3Enu%3D3248%3E%3A37%3E8%3C%3B%3EWSNRCG%3D35%3A933335%3B325nu0mrj http://images.photo2.walgreens.com/232323232%7Ffp53399%3Enu%3D3248%3E%3A37%3E8%3C%3B%3EWSNRCG%3D35%3A932%3A%3B5%3A325nu0mrj http://images.photo2.walgreens.com/232323232%7Ffp53399%3Enu%3D3248%3E%3A37%3E8%3C%3B%3EWSNRCG%3D35%3A9333362325nu0mrj http://images.photo2.walgreens.com/232323232%7Ffp53494%3Enu%3D3248%3E%3A37%3E8%3C%3B%3EWSNRCG%3D35%3A932%3A%3B62325nu0mrj http://images.photo2.walgreens.com/232323232%7Ffp53487%3Enu%3D35%3A8%3E%3B%3C7%3E547%3E2699%3B%3C7638234ot1lsi http://images.photo2.walgreens.com/232323232%7Ffp53389%3Enu%3D35%3A8%3E%3B%3C7%3E549%3E2699%3B%3C763%3A234ot1lsi Here is a link that might be useful: grass from bulbs

Five plants to identify
Q
Comments (3)
Based on what you've posted, the first one does look like winged sumac. Second looks like it could be Mulberry weed. It would have tiny flowers in the leaf axils along the stem. Third one looks like black cherry. Fourth one is non-native aggressive shrub called Elaeagnus. Fifth one looks like a hollyhock seedling.

Well, the first one is black nightshade, a common enough weed, particularly problematic in soybean fields where it is difficult to control with Roundup due to its late germination and rapid maturity.

#1 looks like Majesty palm - Ravenea rivularis. #2 maybe a severely burned Draceana? Can't really tell. Or maybe Pandanus? Need a closer shot of trunk, and crown where leaves come out.

I have successfully transplanted Lycopodiums, some by accident, i.e., they were with other plants that I had dug, so I didn't really take great care.

I think having sufficient moisture at the new site may be key, although getting roots will always be a factor. LOL!
