I'm rusty on houseplants, not really been into them since the 70s

All the rage again now though. Looks like a croton, as suggested elsewhere.

I prefer the cro(u)tons you get with soup...

Download the free app PlantNet and take a photo of the plant. It should give you an answer. A useful app for anyone interested in the natural world.

I get warnings all the time from cap one, bank and others, never use bluetooth in a shopping centre or cafe on a mobile, this seems a big one.

It's a plant.

Could be a small triffid.

The app I use for plant identification is PlantNet. It's free.

Me thinks Codiaeum variegatum Var Pictum

Looks more like this I think.

Croton | Petra

Need Crazy, colourful leaves in your life? The 'Petra' Croton is flashy and fabulous with hues of yellow, green, orange and red, graduating all of its bodacious technicolour attributes as it reaches larger heights and maturity. This variety can be identified by its wide, boat-shaped leaves...

Which is Latin for Croton.

I think you're right, it is.

And here's me thinking I was the only plant show off!
