So pretty
I was amazed at the colors, already sprouting new leaves.

Codiaeum variegatum
Not that anyone's asking, but if you're looking for a plant that reflects how you feel on acid—this is it. It's one of the smaller members of the croton family, making it an ideal houseplant. It thrives in warm places, so keep it away from drafty windows.
Bright, indirect light. Can tolerate short periods of direct sun.
SM: ~8" tall and a 4" pot.
Pro-tip: Browning leaves are an indicator of too much water. Adjust watering and new leaves will grow happy and healthy.
