Hello everyone. I just registered this evening. Glad to find this place.

I have two plants that I want to identify. Please review the photos below and let me know. You can click each photo for a larger full size view if needed. I have a total of FOUR photos on display. Plants #1, #2, and #3... I believe are identical.
Plant #1:
 -

Details: I purchased four of these plants about three days ago from Wal-Mart. I went again and re-potted them into a 4 inch clay pot with that has a drain hole on the bottom.

Plant #2:
 -

Details: This plant is about three years old. I received the plant from a friend of my father's during his funeral.

Plant #3:
 -

Details: This plant is about three years old. I received the plant from a friend of my father's during his funeral.

Plant #4:

Details: I purchased this plant a few days ago at Wal-Mart. I re-potted in into a 6 inch clay pot with a drain hole on the bottom.

Hi gconn! Welcome to the forum! [Wink] [wayey]

I believe #1-#3 is a rhododedron and #4 is a palm, though I'm not sure what specific type. I'm sure someone will be along that knows for sure [Wink]

Howdy and Welcome! [wayey]

The first 3 are schefflera's and 4 is a palm. Maybe a parlour palm?
