Just got this big buddy and I think planta is misidentifying it, any chance someone knows which variation it is? I think it’s a tropic snow diedfenbachia.

NGL, cuz of the pattern of the middle in the leaf being a little less than a tropic snow, so i see it as a snow dieffenbachia

That surprisingly is not an option in Planta. The tag that came on the plant says it needs full sun but planta app says all of the varieties need partial sun, you see my dilemma?

i just use the closest profile on planta and change the name to fit my plants if they’re not on the app 😂🙈
