I wouldn't even hazard a guess from such bad pictures.

Never use back lighting for a picture of a plant you want identified.


This plant is very difficult to photograph - try this one for a flash
fill... I thought the back lighting showed the silhouette better...

I have tried putting it against a plain white wall to photograph it but
the shadows of the million tiny leaves make it even harder to distinguish.

Suggestions are welcome. And you have an excellent track record for
identification.
