I really like it and don't want it to die. It's some sort of ivy that likes to climb apparently. It's leaves are smaller green and seem to have white edging...however I'm not sure the white edging is because of something I'm not doing right or it's part of the plant because some leaves are bigger and just green...it could be i have two different types of ivy in same pot too. I won this plant at an auction. I’m trying to figure out what this houseplant is and how to care for it. I really like it and don’t want it to die.

It was 2-3 feet tall, had curving branches with clusters of leaves at the end of the branches. The leaves were dark reddish-brown, almost a maroon color. Is this a type of croton? I'd like to find another one . . . thanks much, Judy Frey Hi–I’m looking for a plant someone gave me (it died after several years).

The stems are flaky and uneven. The leaves green and oval also uneven around the edges. I put it outside and the leaves burnt leading me to believe it is an indoor house tree. In the house it is growing more leaves and doing fine. I would just like to know what in the world it is! Thanks I was given a plant, well it’s more a tree. The stems are flaky and uneven.

It's leaves are small, almost diamond shaped & it's flowers are white with bright pink centers. The flowers grow in clusters with 6 or 7 in a circle with one in the middle. It's more of a hanging plant & the flowers look like they're made out of wax! It has taken me years to get this plant to grow & bloom... I'm not very good with plants... but this time it has 27 clusters on it! Someone asked me what it was & of course, I had to tell them I didn't know! Can you help? Thanx Jacqi Hello,
