Thread OP

My mom was hoping to find out what this was so that she would know how to care for it. She lives in Alabama.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I agree, your mom's plant is definitely Tree Philodendron (Thaumatophyllum bipinnatifidum) I used to have lots of them at our old house and I sure miss them ... wish I'd dug one up before we sold that house.
