Rhaphidophora tetrasperma
Vining aroids (pothos, philodendron, syngonium)Mood Meter: Go With the Flow

Plant Mood Meter: Go With the Flow
Fast-growing and fairly forgiving, but it needs bright light and a climbing surface to develop its characteristic split leaves.
Care guide
Bright indirect light. Direct sun: Gentle morning or late-day sun can be tolerated after acclimation.
Water thoroughly after the upper portion of the mix has dried; avoid keeping the root zone continuously wet.
Chunky, airy aroid mix with bark and mineral aeration.
Average to moderate household humidity works well.
A vertical textured support strongly benefits mature growth.
