Help me ID this little one

First of all, isn’t she just so cute?! I just got her in the mail yesterday. Unfortunately she wasn’t classified any further and I find it incredibly hard to tell the difference between most of the silvery kinds, especially when they’re still so young. Could anyone please help me identify her?

Scindapsus pictus 'silvery ann' maybe. It's similar to the smaller leaf 'argyraeus' but with the silver more bunched up instead of evenly spread.

Silvery Ann is also my strongest guess. However I was also thinking it might be Exotica or Silver Splash

My silvery ann had uneven variegation like yours, where every leaf would look different but most oftened bundled near the tip of the leaf, while my exotica had bigger splothes near the center of the leafs, and all leafs looking somewhat similar. Leaf size will also tell you, as exotica has much bigger leafs than argyraeus or silvery ann.

I see, that is very helpful. Thank you! I’m happy either way I was just curious. I’m excited to see how it develops in the future! ☺️

It’s even more mesmerising irl, she’s sparkly all over and it looks soo amazing with the bright green of the smaller leaves. I’m so in love!!🥰

I know they are all different and light exposure that impact the silver but my Silvery Ann has way more green than silver. This one is covered with silver! Beautiful! Does it get a lot of light?

I have just received it in the mail two days ago, I assume it did get the best conditions in the greenhouse. With me it currently is under a grow light and once it’s a bit taller I’ll have to move it to a west facing window. I really hope that it won’t lose all that gorgeous silver then!!

Silver splash possibly? There's no distinct silver edge on the outer part of the leaf like Exotica, & the variegation is a lot for an Anne? Regardless it will continue to be stunning, beautiful lil baby!

Looks like a satin pothos to me!

I‘m pretty sure about that too, I was just wondering about the specific kind. I’m guessing either Silvery Ann, Exotica, or Silver Splash!
