My boyfriend's grandmother recently passed away, and we subsequently inherited one of the many houseplants that she owned and cared for. The only problem is that I've no idea what it is exactly - or what "they" are, to be more precise, as there are three different types of plant in this one container that we received!

I've snapped some photos in the hopes that someone might be able to help identify them?

01; Full shot. Click on any of these for a larger version.


02; Secondary plant. Beautiful leaves!


03; Close up shot of the leafing.


04; The "baby." It's very soft and fuzzy.



They really are lovely; my beau's grandmother loved to garden, and she loved her plants. I would feel just awful if any of them died due to my ignorance. :(

The tall one in the middle is a Dragon Tree. Might have been grown somewhere humid like a kitchen as it still has a lot of leaves, but it will start to drop leaves from the bottom as it grows. It grows toward the light so you may have to turn the pot occasionally to keep it straight. Doesn't like being overwatered.
As the other plants are in the same pot they probably like similar conditions.
