Between Planta, ChatGPT and Google image search I cannot figure out what this plant is. The results they give are very obviously not correct, eg. Heartleaf Philodendron has come up a few times, amongst other things that it couldn’t be. It’s suffering because I don’t know how to care for the poor mystery plant 😭 Photos from when I acquired it from a hard rubbish dump, and now (shriveled and only 1 leaf). Please help!

I was hoping for an answer about what type of palm these are. I dug them out from under a cypress tree, where there were probably 30 little palms. Chat gpt, google, and planta are all giving different answers. Around where I dug up the palms there were many varieties of mature palms, I couldn’t see the whole property and investigate. However one variety I found that looked similar leaf wise grew to be a full blown tree, quite tall. Suggested varieties from are; Chinese fan palm Dwarf palmetto Dwarf fan palm Mexican fan palm TIA

Hey all! ☺️ Just got this little cutie today. Named her “Twinkle.” Would anyone happen to know the variety of ripple leaf peperomia she is? Thanks in advance!

Anyone know where I can purchase a rainbow anthurium besseae? I’ve seen some online but not sure if all of them get the iridescent leaves or if it’s a particular one that does. Thanks for the help

I’m hoping for some ID help; this was sold as a polly, but the leaf seems larger and less textured than a polly? Thoughts?

*Alocasia Black Stem Variegated* Got this lovely from Trader Joe’s and the sticker just said “large Alocasia,” it’s got deep purple stems & a pretty variegated leaf. Any guesses?

What do you all do when you want to add a plant and planta doesn't have it? I suggested adding so I'll wait and see. I can't find anything with a similar name even and planta suggestions aren't great. (I bought a discount cactus today labeled notocactus elegans)

Is this a Tradescantia Nanouk? What is this litle dry ball? Doesn't look like regular tradescantia flowers... It's a plant in my office and always wondered what it was.

Just got this baby plant from Lowe’s. The only identification from the tag was “tiny plant.” The closest option I got was a teardrop peperomia. Is this true?
