Rhaphidophora Tenius
Rhaphidophora Tenius
Like monstera dubia and rhaphidophora hayi, tenuis begins as a singler but as it grows, the mature palm-like leaves stop shingling. A pole will be necessary to support the plant once it reaches maturity.
Plant Care
Light: Bright indirect light, too much sun, and you risk scorching the leaves; not enough and your plant will grow slower and leggy in search of more light.
Watering: Give your plant a good soak when the soil starts to dry out. Reduce your watering routine in winter as it won't need as much due to shorter days.
Temperature: 12-30°C is ideal, but it will tolerate down to 10 °C before it gives up.
Potting: These plants like to be a bit root-bound, so don't increase your pot size too quickly! For the perfect soil, try our Airy Ariod mix.
Hot tips: This plant starts off slow growing but once it gets going it really takes off!
Pet Friendly: NOPE
