I am a member of the Home Depot Garden Club.

I get emails and snail mail offers etc from them.
I got a few coupons recently and one was buy one houseplant get one free. Well this is one of them. This is some type of Ivy I would guess. Do you know what type it is? How big will it get if I keeep transplanting it? It has pinkish type coloring on some leaves as well? Are you a member of any garden club? How about a garden forum?

We have a Home Depot close by but I have never heard of their garden club and will have to check into it. My son usually buys all our yard and potted plant needs there. Thank you for letting us know about it for those of us who didn't know.

It's a great deal.
I got a coupon for a free 123 how to book valued at $20 with a $50 purchase also with this. Also one for $10 off $50 purchase. So I used all three last weekend at the same time. A great deal I feel.

Okay, I remembered that it is called, or has been called nephthytis. I could not remember the other names. Latin: syngonium podophylium. Arrowhead plant. The leaves look differently depending on the plant maturity. They start out looking like arrows, then once it starts vining they have three lobes to the leaves. Check my comment on the photo.

Somehow I have missed those coupons. I am a member. I will give a look at your new plant. I like people posting mystery plants as it wakes my brain up to try to remember all of their names.

I shop at home depot alot and always visit their garden center but never knew they had a club..You got some really cool deals there. I went and signed up and I look forward to seeing what they offer me. I use coupons when shopping and I try to find the best deals but sometimes they are out as someone else beat me..ha!
Good luck with finding out the name of your plant, I am not good with that sort of thing so hopefully someone can help you.

Thanks. I love the garden club.
I am also a member of a couple garden forums as

my mom had a variant of that (no pink)-she always called it an "elephant ear".
if it has lil brown root knobs that appear at the vine joints and leaves that also pop out from the vines it's got to be the same type.

Nope not all. Elephant ears are called that for 2 reasopns. One being the leaves look like an elephants ear, and 2 because they are very large leaves. This is a small ivy. Sorry but thanks.
