Raphidaphora Tetrasperma Care and Propagation (with updates)

In this video I go over the care and propagation of the raphidaphora tetrasperma or also known as the mini monstera. An accident broke my plant in half, but no sweat because I know I can propagate this into multiple plants and in about a year time I’ll have 10 of these at full size. I show you a 5 weeks update on the propagation and you can see just how fast growing this plant is! They are an easy houseplant with minimal care and can tolerate a wide variety of conditions. They also look good for styling your interior space.

Holy moly that tetrasperma is freaking MASSIVE. Mine snapped too but I actually managed to get it to heal by bending it back and taping it back together tightly. After a month or two, I took off the tape and it was completely healed like a grafted tree branch!

[@onlyplants]

They propagate really easily. See it you know someone nearby to trade cuttings with. Or if you are patient, the price should fall very soon.

[@sihakrios6764]

Hi Sophie, I don't know where you from, but in Germany they go fo 10€ -20€, and I had in 10 years no pests on it, and they can handle mostly everything. They can take full south sun if you water them enough, it grows very fast then, they survive in low light, but they get laggy then. And a interesting thing is, if you let some vines grow horizontal, you with time from the grow points new vines !!! And they get thicker then too. I propagate them allways in water, i just put them in water and forget about it, thats all, how more light you give the cuttings, how fast you get roots. Shipping works pretty good too. So I really would say give this nice plant a try, you will love it, I'm sure. 💚💚💚

My Tetrasperma is huge. It just keeps growing. Even though I have neglected it many times.. No water for like 4 months. And yet still it just keeps going. No brown or yellow leaves just lovely green. Strongest plant I EVER had by far. It's like a monster! Right now it reached 3 meters. I've had it for maybe 3 years. Never changed soil either poor plant. I do give it rainwater that I collect instead of tap water. I had to screw in hooks on the ceiling and used old copper wire (from wired lights that stopped working) to keep it all hanging properly. Now it looks like a tall creature that wants to grab you 😂. I will propagate it soon. I heard its best to do in summer. I'm in Western Eu and it's still cold here though inside it's warm of course so I don't understand why the seasons make a difference if the weather inside the home is always about the same. Kinda nervous about propagating. Hope I don't mess it up.

I just bought Raphidophora Tetrasperma, it came with a porous soil inside a plastic pot. I am very new at this hobby, so please forgive me for basic questions.. I don’t want to kill them 😁 I keep the RT inside my apt, next to a balcony window, facing east. - How often should I water them? - Is 18cm diameter pot big enough? - Any recommendation in fertilizing them? (i.e how often, what brand). Thank you so much, love your videos!

[@onlyplants]

How often you should water them depends on your temperature, light levels, humidity, airflow, potting mix used, pot size, pot type, and age of plant 😀 I would pay attention to their leaves and media to see about watering. The media need to be bone dry between watering. Dry crisphy leaves or droopy leaves would suggest underwatering. Yellowing leaves or excessive “sweating” of water from the leaves will suggest overwatering. Check out my fertilizer video to see some guide on fertilising 😀

Hi Seaaan!!! Rewatching your videos again and again on a sleepless night. 😅 I have a question I've been meaning to ask after hearing you talk about roots: What are your thoughts on root pruning rootbound aroids? For instance, when space is limited like small apartments and despite badly wanting to upsize a pot, would it be a bad decision to prune roots? Will this shock/kill aroids like the RT, MD, rare philos, etc? Let us know if you've experienced something like this 😅 I've been looking up to your videos the most and really love hearing about your insight. 😅🙏🏼

Thx a lot bro .. really apreciate it !!

Hello, first of all I leave my moss propagations out in the rain... so I must admit they are overwatered all the time and dont recommend to anyone to do this. You should only mist sphagnum moss and keep them on the dry side but humid and slightly damp as this is what will encourage the roots.
