# I bought this unlabeled plant at Lowe’s and I can’t figure out what…

_Posted by Mags on 2024-07-17_

I bought this unlabeled plant at Lowe’s and I can’t figure out what it is! Planta keeps saying it’s a pothos but I’m not convinced. Any ideas?! The leaves are a bit thicker and more textured than any of my pothos plants.

Unfortunately I have no idea but it’s a great find I must say!

I think its a Rubber Tree sp. Scheijveriana.

Seconded! I have one of these that was “sick” when I first got it, and the leaves looked kind of shriveled like this. Coloration and stem look exactly the same. With some time and proper care, it should start to produce new leaves that are more ovular with smoother edges.

maybe Ficus shivereana (which is what I think GreenLeaf is referencing?) — if not that, maybe some kind of Aglaonema?

Thanks everyone!! It was literally $2 and I thought it was cute and couldn’t help myself but mystery solved ¨̮
