Hi gconn! Welcome to the forum!

I believe #1-#3 is a rhododedron and #4 is a palm, though I'm not sure what specific type. I'm sure someone will be along that knows for sure

Howdy and Welcome!

The first 3 are schefflera's and 4 is a palm. Maybe a parlour palm?

Ohhhh Embarraskin

Ha! I knew something - that's 'cause I got my first schleffera this year (had it identified here).

schefflera- is this the proper name for umbrella trees? cause #2 looks a lot like mine.

Yes, it is.

Thanks for the help guys. I am very pleased to have so many people eager to help. Thank you very much.
