    I recently baught an 'assorted-tropical', unfortunatily the staff at the garden center, who have been able to ID plants for me in the past didn't, know the name of this one.

    The largest leaves are ~10cm long. The leaves are stiff and feel like paper when you tuch them. The spots on the leaves are mostly white, though some are yellow.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Polka Dot Plant is the name usually used for Hypoestes phyllostachys.

    This is Dracaena godseffiana 'Florida Beauty', common name is Gold Dust Dracaena or Florida Beauty.
