Sherrie Slaboda on Sep 08, 2015Oh I know it isn't the best pic but the best I could do. He is gone today. If he is the bad one I hope he went back to Cuba. I try to respect nature to take care of things but man gets involved and then there is a problem that is worse @Janet Pizaro.Helpful Reply

Katrina Warren on Sep 09, 2015@Sherrie Slaboda It's hard to tell based on the pic, but it certainly looks as if it might be a Cuban tree frog! If you see it again, maybe you could catch it, & call a local zoo, fish & game or a local college that might want to study it or something to take it. Here is a link that provides some information & other links to identify Cuban frogs. http://www.wec.ufl.edu/extension/wildlife_info/frogstoads/osteopilus_septentrionalis.phpHelpful Reply

J Rigby on Sep 09, 2015it's either barking tree frog or green frog. Some varieties have suction cup finger tips and can change color. this is a cordiline tropical plant which nurseries grow in Florida. If you bought this from a home improvement store it comes from Costa Nursery. you can go to their site for more information on your plant. I merchandise these in New England stores and get this frog all the time shipped in the plants. Costa also ships small lizards Gecko's in their plants too. I catch them for my grandson for his collection. Costa a national shipping company frequently have frogs and lizards in their tropicals but nothing else. They live and breed in the tropicals on their farm. They probably give tours as well.Helpful Reply
