    Can anyone help?

    I saw this photo the photo on the top withthe tall grassy pant) in a magazine and I'd like to get one of these plants. After extensive googling, I still can't figure out what it is. Any ideas?

    Thanks in advance...

    There's not enough detail to hazard a guess.

    What magazine was it in? Perhaps that would help. A location might help, too.

    The lack of clarity makes it hard, but if you think it's a grass, it could be something like Cymbopogon citratus, aka lemongrass.

    The erectness made me think of sansevieria, but the impression of feathery tops pushes me toward papyrus.

    A magnified photo of the mystery plant

    Hi-

    Thanks forthe guesses. The pic is from an old copy of Natural Home magazine - March/April 2008, page 66. No indication of where the home is located.

    Anyone else care to take a crack at this?

    It reminds me of a mass planting of Sansevieria trifasciata. Common name Mother in laws tongue. But pic is too small to be sure.
