    Does anyone know what these two plants are? I think the one growing in clumps is possibly a Peace Lily? The other one is totally strange looking. Thank you for any help.

    The first one is a "Chinese evergreen" - Aglaonema sp., probably A. modestum.
    The second does look like a Spathyphyllum cv. such as S. 'Lynese'.

    It would appear to me that both need more light.

    Thank you so much for your fast response! Now I have the names needed to find out how to best care for them! YES! I don't believe I have ever heard of either one of them. Again, Thanks! ( and my new plants thank you!)
