Hi. I have bought a new tree that has leaves all around a petiole and it kind of looks like a money tree with round leaves. Here's some images:
Unknown Tree1
Unknown Tree2
Unknown Tree3

So, if it is a money tree, what species is it? If it's not a money tree, then what plant is it? Thanks in advanced!

i cant believe you keep your potted plants.. which need watering.. next to your electronics ...

even Mcgyver might be a little more careful than that ... lol

I see you all noticed my medication. Oops! lol
When ever I'm taking care of my plants, I keep them next to the computer so that if I have any questions or notice anything wrong with my plants, I can look up the problem and ask questions if I need to. It's a lot easier to do it that way for some reason lol :P

Good point, mcgyvr!
It's an indoor plant here.
I've seen them in Hawaii two stories tall.
I have a dwarf form....indoors.
