# Can someone please help me ID this plant? My mom saved these pieces…

_Posted by Kimberly on 2024-05-10_

Can someone please help me ID this plant? My mom saved these pieces from the dying plant and is attempting to propagate them - lots of new roots growing! I’ll be putting them in soil today but would like to know more about it so I can give it the best care. Thanks in advance!

Based on the primary stem, it looks like some sort of Dieffenbachia or “dumb cane” plant me.

I can't help you out with the identification but this plant is very cool looking. It almost looks exotic with the bamboo looking stems. 😍

### StringofMonsteras commented on 2024-05-10

It looks like a diffenbachia or a type of aglonema

Definitely looks like a dieffenbachia. Here’s my baby. Maybe they can be friends.
