Tropical Plants

Novice Trying to Identify Leaf

12 years ago

Hello.

I found a photo of a leaf online that I absolutely love, and I'm trying to ID the plant that it's from so that I could see if I could buy it from somewhere. I'm assuming it's a tropical plant, although I can't be certain. Does anyone know what plant this is (see link below)? Thanks so much for your help!

your link.

If you like that type of variegated look, also consider Calatheas, Syngoniums, Alocasias.
