Those are amazing looking plant’s. If I didn’t know any better I would have thought that they belonged to the Monstera groups. Thank you for the details!

[@ma.theresadelaroca1844]

I like the part where you compare the tissue cultured and non tc tetrasperma. I think i have the non tc one. Thanks for sharing your rhaphidophora varieties. 💚

[@TastefulNodes]

People often wonder why there are differences in appearance in juvenile plants so it was an important issue to discuss, but they will likely end up the same shape

[@jhndr0nia]

Great video and collection! Although the plant sold to you as Rhaphidopphora spec. looks rather like a R. korthalsii (it's a highly variable species) than a R. hayi. Hayi is rather green and its leaves are more symmetrical. Also your description of the mature plant seems to fit R. korthalsii. Hayi's leaves don't develop fenestartions nor splits.

Hi,
So I have some thoughts about the tc vs non tc. I am not an expert just a houseplant/gardening hobbiest in the USA. One point is that the nodes can be changed drastically on one plant based on lighting conditions and on support. I have a few plants that have extremely short (less than 1 cm) internodal spacing from high light and well supported times(like on a pole) and other sections with long internodal spacings(4 cm or more) from times of getting lower light and/or end of the pole looking for more support. Also, the tc plants will be like the plants they used for tc and so if they had a batch of plants with less rounded leaves and more elongated then the tc plants would then grow like that. Maybe it’s a matter of different plants from different areas? Maybe the tc ones were from a plant from Thailand and the non tc one you have is from Malaysia. I’m just thinking of different things that could affect the differences not just tc vs non tc. It’s all just speculation on my part. 😂 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@yolyrom7233]

I believe you are right. I’ve been watching a lot of vids on why some aroids have much longer nodes compared to some that are much shorter: conclusion’s: they had to stretch while they were reaching for the sun, the shorter versions had enough sunlight (not direct) , therefore not having to fight for the sun . Even Alocasias, Calatheas, and plenty of other plant’s as well, all competing for the sunlight. Js

Hi, Manang! Here is the US, the pertusa is not a very big thing! I’ll be on the look out. Is the care for them pretty much the same as for the tetrasperma? Salaaaaaamat!!!
