- 🍀 Rhaphidophora tetrasperma - often called Mini Monstera, Monstera Ginny, or Dwarf Monstera, is a rare collectible for plant enthusiasts.
- 🍀 This beautiful vining plant hails from Thailand and resembles the popular Monstera deliciosa, with similarly split leaves that stay very compact and manageable. The plant can be maintained under 3-4 ft with pruning, even more compact that famous Baby Swiss Cheese Monstera we mentioned earlier.
- 🍀 Mini Monstera makes an excellent houseplant, thriving in bright, indirect light and easy to care for. Its foliage changes as it matures, adding to its appeal.
- 🍀 Ideal for a pot or trained up a trellis, this plant brings a tropical vibe to any indoor space, staying lush, green, and full of character!
