Hello,
Sorry, I don't have this plant, so I can't help you there, but hopefully someone can. Are you possibly referring to a Dracaena fragrans plant?

Good catch, DowntoEarth !
I was just wondering what a corn palm is and then there's your post.
I bet it IS a dracaena.

Yes it is more officially known as a Dracaena fragrans. You really know your plants!
Well we decided to cut one of the stalks down to about a foot high. We'll see what happens and then take it from there. Hopefully it sprouts up and we can begin a new chapter with this plant.

it should.  and you can plant the green part of what you cut off and it should grow also.

The stalks have grown tall and fallen.
What I need to know is can I cut a stalk and either replant or re-root it? I've been told that I can cut the stalks down and possibly new grown will come. Is there something I should do or be aware of before I do so?
Thanks in advance.
