20+ year old plant...but what is it?
This plant is my grandmother's and has been around for ages. I would love to know what it is so that I can better care for. Thanks for any help.

It's a Dieffenbachia.

I'm fairly certain it's an Aglaonema commutatum. Same genus (Aglaonema) as the Chinese Evergreen just a different variety.
