    I bought these 2 houseplats today neither had a proper name nor can I find them in the RHS encyclopedia.
    1 looks like it's going to be a tree when it grows up. It has a black stem/trunk has 3 lobed leaves which are irregulaly serated around the edges and has yellow margins(this may be irrelevant)presently about 5 inches tall

    2 is a succulant about 2 inches tall and looks like a collection of Shreks ears. What more can I say except does anyone know what they are please?

    Agree with Ss on both, first was also known as Aralia Elegantissima.
