I bought myself some plants today for on my balcony but I have no idea what kind of plants they are

Hoping someone can help me identify them!

Triffids I think.

Triffids??

Sorry mate, no idea, nice looking beasties though

The first plant is "two plants in one": the tip of an Euphorbia species with leaves was cut off, an monstrous form of another Euphorbia, "Euphorbia lactea f. cristata" was planted on top of the base plant... Some people like this kind of "mixed" plants...

On the weekend market in Bangkok you may find a dozen or so different varieties of these plants...

The third plant is a fern, genus Platycerium I believe...

The fourth plant is a member of the family Gesneriaceae, genus Aeschynanthus I think...

I see my pics have been removed for some reason... Still don't know what they are... Hope someone else knows!

no they are still there, just the file size is so large it takes ages too load. next time try posting smaller file sizes for those of us with slower connections, cheers

The plant in the 3rd photo looks like an Elkhorn. Platycerum family

Euphorbia Lactea F. Cristata

Platycerium ridleyi

That's 3 already

To the first green plant hanging down from my second post they refer to as "Rachene hen cond" and to the last red climber as "Pu nang fa" or something... Hope this is of any help!

Still looking for the name of the small fern hanging in the basket and the red plant with six leaves standing up.

The plant with 6 leaves is called "Pride of Sumatra Aglaonema", or "red aglaonema". I don't know the Thai name.

For this plant (Aglaonema) two Thai names are in use: อโกลนีม่า and แก้วกาญจนา

Aglaonema Tiara is the latin name I think
