Can Anyone help us identify these 4 plants we bought in Zheijiang province China. I have uploaded the pictures. The link is http://www.3rdlightproductions.com/plants/
Any Help as to how much water and how to look after them would be appreciated.

Hi d7 -
The 4th plant (stephsplant) is Dracaena sanderiana also commonly called 'Lucky Bamboo'.

Hi- Damien's - really not sure but maybe a type of anthurium. It looks like it needs some TLC.
Tony and houseplant- I guess two dracaenas.(marginata and Janet Craig)
I suggest you google these and try to find pics that look like yours. I'm not super experienced with these.
The one titled 'Damien's Plant' (pictured in your thumbnail on this post) I have seen before.
It was being sold around here about 3 years ago, simply tagged 'Chinese Taro', with no botanical name.
They were grown in shallow bowls of water/rocks, just as the 'Lucky Bamboo' is being sold.
I assumed it was Alocasia cucullata, as that's the one commonly called 'Chinese Taro' and they did certainly resemble them (on a 'small' scale!)
I agree that the one labeled 'Tony's Plant' could be a Dracaena, but wondered if you might be able to get a closer shot of it's stem?
The one labeled 'houseplant' looks like a Cordyline to me.
the pic in your post is an arrowhead vine. the other three have been correctly identified already.
