Does anyone know what type of plant this is?
-
http://www.flickr.com/photos/riceballalieninasailorsuit/4099079045/ I bought him from Thrifty Foods that other day and the label only said "tropical plant." I need to know the type of plant so that I can find out how to look after him properly. If you have advice that would be helpful, but if I only had the name I could look it up myself. Thank you.

This is either one of the cultivars of English Ivy (Hedera helix, usually an outdoor plant) or Natal Ivy/Cape Ivy (Senecio macroglossus) which resembles it, but which usually has variegated leaves, but some with solid green leaves do exist. Although the second plant named resembles an ivy, it's a member of the daisy family (Asteraceae). The leaves of both can be highly variable in shape, so it's difficult to say which yours is without a flower to identify. Fortunately, both are relatively hardy plants that don't require much in the way of special care, but if this is Hedera helix, it can be prone to plant pests.
