It looks to me like a Arrowhead Plant (Syngonium podophyllum). Google that and see if that's it. :)

The z shaped plant is a ric rac catus. All i know is the common name. You can google it to find out the botanical name. The other one is an arrowhead plant.

CV...The arrow shaped leaves of the varegated plant is Arum italicum...here,in zone 8 it sends up leaves in the late fall/winter....green through the winter...in the spring it sends a spath type white flower and in the spring summer sends up a cluster of brillian orange berries...very attractive..likes bright shade and very hardy....

That kinda looks like a devil's backbone plant, at least the stem does. Sometimes called the zig zag plant. I cant' tell for sure. Maybe you can compare some images on google. This may be way off, but it's a starting point. It looks like it might be in the catus family.
