Should I separate and transplant them????? Also what are they??? ![Attachment 1 of 2](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/83r3UQpFdquIAx_HwqHNA7Wu1d0NH6Fv1c7yZ3SnyuY/ttBIcRJYR5amGEH0cAMrnw.webp?size=large) ![Attachment 2 of 2](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/83r3UQpFdquIAx_HwqHNA7Wu1d0NH6Fv1c7yZ3SnyuY/epFd_Y4VQpKlTeysp8YSKg.webp?size=large) ## 9 comments ### Crazy plant lady commented on 2026-02-15 1 prayer plant. 2 heart leaf philodendron. 3 draconea I think it's called not sure on the exact spelling. 4 deiffenbachia of some sort ![Attachment 1 of 1](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/wsiBWdWWuSAxTYTBm9QPYArkl1vHLBDGtncejiF7b7k/ErZDPqHeTESy830N7JQiQA.webp?size=large) ### Crazy plant lady commented on 2026-02-15 Yes they need to be transplanted into separate pots, they all have different water care needs and check the roots when you pull them out to make sure there isn't rot, those are the ones I was able to identify ### Crazy plant lady commented on 2026-02-15 Almost looks like you have a golden crocodile in the second picture the neon green guy in the bottom of the pot ### Crazy plant lady commented on 2026-02-15 Dracenea ### Adian Rankin commented on 2026-02-15 Did you get this from a local or big box store? Bc retailers like Lowes do this so they die and you buy more #### Foxy replied on 2026-02-16 Yeah both came from my grandfather's funeral a few months ago, so I really dont want them to die. Do you know if any of these won't handle separation well? #### Adian Rankin replied on 2026-02-16 It really depends. When you go to repot them check to see if the company put cloth/plastic around the roots. If so, they most should be fine to replant. Plants get shocked if you have to pull apart the root ball ### jlsKenzy commented on 2026-02-15 Yes separate them. In the second it looks to also have a snake plant in the back, then the long leaves is another type of dracaena "margarite" not sure the spelling. ### Lisa Anglim commented on 2026-02-17 I would be very gentle when separating them. They will transplant much easier then. --- _Source: the Planta community (https://getplanta.com). Reading is open to everyone.
