# I picked up this plant a little over a year ago with no tag and…

_Posted by KodiakCat19 on 2024-10-25_

I picked up this plant a little over a year ago with no tag and thought it may have been a golden pothes but now feel like that's wrong as it hasn't become vine like at all and has stayed rather bushy. It also doesn't have the normal waxier heart shaped leaves a pothes would.  
Any idea on what it could be?

Looks like a type of Dumb cane.... Dieffenbachia. Might help find the specific species

Looks like a diffenbachia or possibly a Chinese evergreen

It’s a dieffenbachia, looks like perfection compacta with the growth pattern :)
