How to fertilize Rhaphidophora foraminifera
Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Rhaphidophora foraminifera after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

“I’m not going to buy plants this weekend” never seems to turn out that way does it….. Welcoming a #MiniMonstera #RhaphidophoraForaminifera and a #DwarfUmbrellaTree #Variegated #VariegatedDwarfUmbrellaTree to Grace’s Oasis 😅😅 Got these cutie pots this week and obviously needed to immediately fill them 🙄 #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #NewPlants #PlantHaul #MonsteraMob #UmbrellaTree #variegatedplants #Monstera

She’s growing so much I’ve had this mini monstera for 9 months and she’s gotten so big, almost six feet tall. But i’m noticing her new leaves are a bit smaller and she’s requiring A LOT more frequent watering which is causing gnats. Idk what to do with her or how to train her to hang or go back downward with the moss pole. ANY IDEAS 💡

My favorite plant is super happy! I see another root peaking at me!🖤 #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #NewGrowth #RhaphidophoraTetrasperma

I put my mini monstera on a moss pole 11/29/23 and today I noticed an aerial root finally peaking! The feeling I had when I saw that root was almost (not quite as exciting but close) equivalent to when I held my oldest child for the first time almost 19 years ago. This is my first/only moss pole so far. #Acclimation #NewGrowth #HappyPlants #MossPole #TropicalPlants #MiniMonstera #RhaphidophoraTetrasperma #PlantsMakePeopleHappy

What should I do? My dragon's tail went through a bout with root rot. I had her in a pot that ended up being too big trying to accommodate the moss pole I had. I removed her, cut away her roots, and attempted to start over. But she's been drooping over since. Should I chop more? I don't want to lose her. 😔 #plantsmakepeoplehappy #plantaddict #dragontailplant

New leaves on my rhaph. tetrasperma :) do they always grow baby leaves with fenestrations?

Saw this beauty and had to grab her. Wasn’t expecting to find a mini Monstera at Walmart but sometimes you go in for something little and spot something great. My daughter got me the pot for Christmas and I was waiting for the right plant. I just love it! Brought it home… took it out of the self watering pot, put it in an airy, chunky soil mix and removed all the yellowing little leaves at the bottom. Popped in a pole since she has lots of aerial roots and she loooooks lovely 🥰 I named her mini because she’s stunning and fabulous like my daughter. It’s her “Mini me” #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #MiniMonstera #Monstera

I was wondering if you could help me identify what's wrong with my little monstera. I got her from a garden centre two weeks ago and it started spreading these brown spots.I repotted her when noticed in an airy mix.I think fungi? #MiniMonstera
