Rhaphidophora tetrasperma, also known as Mini Monstera, is a tropical plant that is native to Southeast Asia.
It is a climbing plant that belongs to the Araceae family and is related to both Monstera and Philodendron plants.
Rhaphidophora tetrasperma has unique foliage that is characterized by its split leaves with elongated lobes. Its leaves are typically smaller than those of its Monstera and Philodendron relatives and can grow up to around six inches long. The plant can grow to be several feet tall and can be trained to climb up a trellis or allowed to trail down from a hanging basket.
This plant is relatively easy to care for and can thrive in a variety of conditions. It prefers bright, indirect light but can also grow in low-light conditions. It also prefers well-draining soil and moderate watering. However, it is important not to overwater the plant, as this can lead to root rot.
