A couple of plants that are, technically, surviving, but not doing enough to be of much landscape interest.

Dragon tree (Dracaena marginata) that has been in this spot for years, maybe 7-8. Some years it gets a little taller, but this is what it can do.

Plain green Chinese evergreen (Aglaonema modestum) that has been in the spot for 5-6 years. A 5th or 6th leaf is forming. Great insurance in case something happens to my potted plants, but not able to add much to the outside landscape. Maybe similar to one of the small Hostas.

I do appreciate those because I use the area where they are for very small, micro-managed plants, so they happen to fit in. I'm surprised to see both are back at all after the cold spell last winter.
The golden rule: Do to others only that which you would have done to you.

The best time to plant a tree is 20 years ago. The 2nd best time is now. (-Unknown)

Try to be more valuable than a bad example.
