Corn Plant (dracaena ... ?) loosing leafs

I can't help you on the ID, but I will reccomend that you take the plant home again, as the more leaves it looses, the more energy you are depriving it of. Try it's smaller cousin, a comon asian Dracaena sold under the name "lucky bamboo". It'll last a little longer under those conditions, and is easy to replace. Murri

Is it also growing new leaves up top? If so, give it time to adjust to the new situation. Many plants will lose leaves in reaction to situational changes. Also, Dracaena will lose its lower leaves gradually, even under the best of conditions. They just get old. Eventually, you end up with longer trunk than you began with. There's a way around this which involves something called air layering. You make a notch someplace on the trunk where you'd like roots to grow. When roots develop, you cut the trunk off below that point and stick the new "root zone" into a pot. Voila. Shorter plant.

It stopped growing any leaves, actually one of the leaves that fell off was right at the top.

Water softener at the place of business? Odd fumes?

I've actually been using water from the water cooler to water it lately (no bathroom close by in my new location), so it was pretty pure, but I've since switched back to tap water in case that was causing any issues. As for odd fumes, I can't smell any, but I wouldn't be suprised if there is something ... my office is in the basement now. :(

Thanks, Harry

I'd say give it a couple of weeks and see if it begins to make new leaves. If not, it's time to get that plant out of there. Is it sitting on a cold floor?

The floor is carpeted and it feels fine to the touch.

I'm thinking I might take it home this comming weekend. It's huge though so it's a pretty big ordeal to move it.

Thanks, Harry
