I'm cheating. It's a photo of Aglaonema 'Emerald Holiday' where the colors have been swapped around. (red --> green, green --> blue, blue --> red)
I'd picked the background and link colors first, and then was looking for a photo that would coordinate with them. Since I don't have any genuinely turquoise/teal plants, I faked it.

Please note: I am a person, not a houseplant-care-advice vending machine. If you've asked a plant-care question and I responded, that took time and effort that I could have spent on something else, and it's nice if you acknowledge that with a "thank you."
Also: no, I will not help you draw attention to your Kickstarter. No, I do not need the services of a blog-ads optimizer. No, I'm not interested in promoting/reviewing/giving away your products. Fuck, no, I will not write for free for your blog. I know these things are important to you, and you feel that your case is so special that I would obviously make an exception to the rule if you asked me because of how special your thing is, but I assure you: it is not special, and I will not make an exception.

I have nothing to say about this epi, but really liked the new picture in the header. What is the plant there?

Ah, that's why it made me remember blue dyed phals from Home Depot.
Would be an interesting house plant if it was real though.
