CloseOften known as "Mini-Monstera" or Philodendron Ginny, Rhaphidophora tetrasperma is only a distant relative to the philodendron family. As its nickname implies, it is smaller and more compact than Monsteras, and works well as a supported upright or trailing houseplant. If the leaves aren't splitting, move to a better-lit room and water only when the soil surface is dry to the touch.
