Still not sure if my daughter and I are going to garage sales today. The weather is a little wacky.
I got this little roll top desk a few years ago at a garage sale. I often wonder if the girl regrets selling it to me. It was her Mother's when she was a little girl.
And does anyone know what that plant is in the first picture?

Nancy, I love the little rolltop. I believe the plant is a pothos. Is there any varigation on it? If so it could be a golden or marbled pothos. They are beautiful plants and last for ages.

Mary Jane, the plant Nancy doesn't know isn't a pothos. I don't know what it is, but not a pothos. In the picture of the desk, the plant on the right is a pothos. Nice plant, though, Nancy Jo.

You are right Judy! I didn't even see that picture at all. I only saw the roll top desk picture. I can't see the leaves close enough to tell what that plant is.It is a nice full plant though.

I don't think I've ever seen a plant like that before. It looks like some kind of ivy or trailing plant, though.

I thought it looked like Scheflera leaves, too until I saw the trailing vine. They don't do that, do thay?

No, Scheflera is a tree. I want to say it's a grape ivy, but I'm really not sure.
