    I think the right one is Syngonium podophyllum the arrowhead plant....

    The picture is hard to see, but i think the left one is a coffee (arabica) plant. Take another picture in different light to give us a better see of it. Thanks.

    @lori_15 - On first glance the first plant struck me as a Coffee Plant (am concurring with Carolyn). The second plant come to me as a Syngonium aka Arrowhead but it is way whiter or more variegated than any one I've ever seen. Very pretty plant but not one I could definitively say I know.

    Thankyou so much. I will google those plant names and see how to care for them.

    I repotted some of mine last weekend, with some Philodendron. Gave them something to climb around on.

    Here's some that's managed to start going up a tree trunk. Not hardy here, it can't stay there (well, can't stay there AND stay alive through winter. LOL!)
