Kim,



The photos you posted were properly labeled. Pothos always have some variegation - there are gold/yellow and silver/cream forms. Their leaves tend to be a bit thicker and have a more waxy feel.



The heart-leaved philodendron (the one you showed) is solid green and has a more matte texture (little to no sheen) and is about the same size as pothos. The one that chimbakka is referring to is the Monstera deliciosa



The site I sent you to yesterday has photos in the sidebar and you can click to see bigger.



Hope this helps!

>>Pothos are a light to medium green with yellow bits in them. The other ones are dark green and look almost fake, and are a lot larger than the pothos. Pothos are about maybe 2-3" wide in the leaves. The others are closer to five inches wide, and are also a lot thicker in the leaves, and are waxy. Hope that helps some. It's easy when you have both to compare, but looking at one without the other is sometimes hard.
