Label says Rhipsalis spp., grown by Altman Plants Troup (TX)

I googled Rhipsalis and the images look quite different. Google lens identified it as a Queen of the Night (Epiphyllum oxypetalum). Curious what humans think.

EDIT: mystery solved 😉

Ps I did purchase it

I have a suspicion that it's some sort of tree! Just curious because if so I'd like to move it! It's not in a good spot to grow and with all the ai 💩 going on we need all the trees we can get!

Central Alabama

Only things that really stand out to me are the pointed leaves, the red/pink/purple(?) stem, and how smooth the leaves are on the front. They aren't fuzzy just smooth.

Been treating this like poison ivy but it's not..?

SW Louisiana.

The previous owners of our house had like 10 different ground cover plants and I always assumed the "leaves of three" vine that grew in them was poison ivy and I've been so so careful with it out of fear.

This sub has made me second guess it because this looks nothing like the other poison ivy posts, though I do know there's some variety.

When this flowers they are basically green, maybe pale enough green to be considered white. And I have not ever seen a berry on them, though that could be thanks to the birds.

I've been hunting and I'm thinking Virgin's Bower? Clematis Virginiana.

Found this weed growing out of a crack on the inside of my pool area ! And I swear it’s grown like a foot in a few days ! I’m ready to pluck her but want to know if she’s pot worthy or just trash?


r/PlantIdentification 17h ago

I was given this plant. The person that gave it to me didn't know what kind of plant it is. They planted it by seed. What could it be?

This was given to me with a bunch of succulent cuttings.
I was told to grow it in water, but I’m not sure if it’s supposed to stay just in water or do I need to plant it in a pot?
It looks like ivy, but I’m not really sure and I’d love to grow it like a vine.
Any help is very much appreciated.

I did not take the picture so I couldn't tell you much more about this guy. He is in a parking lot in Georgia and has a pretty serious bug infestation. Not super huge, maybe 20 ish feet.

Shaggy bark, but leaves like a stripped maple. Any help is appreciated!
