Rhaphidophora Tetrasperma, also known as “Mini Monstera”, Philodendron/Monstera “Ginny”, or Philodendron “Piccolo”, is a unique species of plants originating from Malaysia and Southern Thailand. Although these plants are part of the Araceae family, they belong to an independent genus known as Rhaphidophora.

 

The Rhaphidophora Tetrasperma plant was first discovered in 1893 by a British botanist named Joseph Dalton Hooker. The species’ scientific name has the following possible meaning: firstly, the word “Rhaphidophora”, which could refer to the oxalates found in the plant’s center that are “needle-like”, and secondly, the term “Tetrasperma”, which describes the four-sided seeds that are produced by the plant in the autumn season.

Considering their reputation as small-sized climbers, these Mini Monsteras can be great houseplants if proper conditions are provided. These ornamental plants are suitable both indoors, especially if you have a large living room or if you love Jungalow style, and outdoors, placed in the alley or at the front door.

 

Rhaphidophora Tetrasperma plants are often confused with other families and species including Monstera Deliciosa (looking like a miniature version of it), Epipremnum Pinnatum (can both have pinnate foliage), and Philodendron species of plants.[라피도포라 테트라스퍼마 식물은 몬스테라 델리시오사(작은 버전처럼 보인다), 에피프레름눔 핀나툼(둘 다 핀나테 잎을 가질 수 있다), 필로덴드론 종 등 다른 가족이나 종과 혼동되는 경우가 많다.}
