An early morning check showed two Thyme seedlings. (upon closer inspection I saw four and upwards of 9 tonight) It has only been 5 days. It makes me excited to watch for the rest. I will take pictures on a weekly basis, so watch for some on Saturdays.

Hi,
We need some help. My co-worker adopted this plant at work to care for it, but we are unsure of what it is. The last person identified it as a Chinese Evergreen plant but if that is the case it is extremely overgrown. Could someone help us? If you know what it is, do you have any suggestions for it's care?
Thanks as always.
