So, I thought I had a dumb cane until I was looking in a house plant book today and saw one with leaves that looked exactly like mine. It was called an aglaonem crispum 'silver queen'. Now I'm not sure what I have. I had looked through the plant files and thought my "dumb cane" was Dieffenbachia x bausei. I have a picture, you can't see the leaves very well, but the one in the back you can sort of. Sorry, its the only picture I have. But, from the pic you can see it has gotten very tall and I thought the stem looks like a dumb cane.....from what I've read 'siver queen' is a low growing plant. Can anyone help, I'm confused now!

Thanks in advance
