not enough info I am afraid. Can you post a pic on tinypic and put the link here?

Could it be a cordyline?
view some images of 'Trachycarpus fortunii or cordaline australis.

Like this Gardenmad? They can be green or variegated also. Some grow as tall as trees, some flower, some do not develop the trunk or thick stem. The one shown is Cordyline Australis Red Star,I believe.
Sounds like cordyline
Sorry for my bad attempts at spelling Latin names earlier, I was in a rush.
Another contender with fan shaped leaves might be the 'European fan palm' aka (Chamaerops humilis)
