A stalacitie has a 'C' in it, that means it grows from the 'c'eiling. Stalagmite has a 'G' in it, which means it grows from the 'g'round.
I think the answer you are looking for is below:

A stalagmite (from the Greek stalagma ("ΣÏαλαγμίÏηÏ"), "drop" or "drip") is a type of speleothem that rises from the floor of a limestone cave due to the dripping of mineralized solutions and the deposition of calcium carbonate.
A stalactite (Greek stalaktos, (ΣÏαλακÏίÏηÏ), "dripping" or "dropped"), or dripstone, is a type of speleothem that hangs from the ceiling or wall of limestone caves.

a stalagmite is an icicled shaped rock that is facing upward from the ground...and a stalagtite is also an icicled shaped rock but facing down from something above....like maybe a cave ceiling....

One hangs from the ceiling and one comes up from the floor. I believe the stalactite is the one hanging from the ceiling.

a stalagmite comes from the top of the cave and a stalagtite comes up from the bottom of it.
