Other Comments: 
I have been told its a Monstera and then told its a philodendron but haven’t been able to identify it on any website. Can you help me PLEASE!!

 

Answer:  Hi Jill,  I really have no idea. Plants are identified by their flowers.  It could be Anthurium coriacium, but it might be a philodendron or another member of that family of plants (Araceae).   Try Googling ‘Images of araceae’ for other ideas.   Don
