Plant Guru’s!

I am not being lazy, but if someone could positively id these plants it will help me to provide them with the best cond. And hopefully help some other planted tank newbies.
If plant cant be seen clearly I would gladly post a clear pic of the plant.
Please correct my ID's.
I am sure there are 1 or two non aquatics, if these could be easily id then begginers would save money and hopefully LPS will not sell them anymore
If the gurus could supply info on the plants off hand that would be awesome,maybe we could develope a little plant data base or some thing.

Thank You!

Plant 7: acorus graminus variegated - non aquatic, good bog plant.
I can't tell for sure, but plant 17 might be Syngonium? if so, also non aquatic. Can you post a close-up?

Yup, that's Syngonium (arrowhead vine) - pretty potplant usually grown around a moss-stick support... I believe its a good paludarium subject!

Cool thanks

Had a feeling it was a syngonium, but hoping it was not. A pic of the little one i am preparing, been messing around with diff. light cond. and found that the colours change. FUN FUN FUN

Thanks for your time

I have been looking on a few aquarium plant websites.
I think No 14 is Rotala macrandra
