    Hi there,
    I just brought this beautiful 6.5 foot plant home... and it is just gorgeous.... However, I have no idea what it is and how to take care of it! The lady at the store said it was a diffenbachia -- but it does not look like any diffenbachia I know.
    Can anyone help me identify it.
    It is 6.5 feet tall now and looks like it wants to get taller. It has a somewhat pointed shape. Leaves are dark green, glossy, and large. Largest leaves are 4.5" wide by 7" long.
    Thank you SO much to anybody who help me solve this mystery!

    Lotte
