Michelle, monstera and philodendron are both aroids and therefore related, but they're not the same and names aren't interchangeable. They're like cousins in the same family. The plant in the pic at your link is an immature-stage Monstera deliciosa. They wrongly call it 'split leaf philo' in the title copy, a popular common name for it but totally incorrect. The pics you posted on Dec 8 ($280) are also of Monstera deliciosa. These and the green one in the link are both very slow-growing but I suspect the variegates, given less chlorophyll on leaves, are a little slower than an all-green one. Question... regarding the plant in your pic of Dec 8 (with books in the background), I can't enlarge the pic... are there holes in the interior of those leaves? I think we decided that Jessica and Henry might be the variety Borsigiana, so they'll be much smaller, faster growing and will be more vine-like than the full size deciosas. Regarding yellow variegation, my full-size deliciosa variegata specimens (from defunct Asiatica Nursery erroneously sold as Thai Constellation) have new leaves with distinctive creamy yellowish variegation but it slowly fades to a creamy white color. I'd be interested in knowing if there is a full-size deliciosa that has permanent yellow variegation, I've never seen one in person and don't trust pics. Years ago someone posted pics of a red-variegated deliciosa but turned out to be a photoshopped hoax. The Borsigiana variegates are different, the white one is white from the get-go, not yellowish, and stays that way. The color in the yellow one is permanent and doesn't fade. Russ

Thank you both for the ID! I've been reading about var borgsiana for almost a year and didn't know the only Monstera I've had since June was just that. Of all my indoor plants this winter, it's the best. Of all past winters it's 2nd behind an ivy plant I had. Some time back I had a small indoor ivy that did great no matter what the season was. When a vine got too long I cut it, put it in water, when it got roots I'd plant it in the pot it originated from. So I eventually had a really thick hanging plant. I don't recall what happened to it, but it was the best indoor plant I've ever had as far as growth rate, health, and ease of care.

One that comes to mind is monstera adansonii, the leaves stay somewhat small and it has a “crazy” vine- like habit of growing (the picture is not mine) Another option is rhaphidophora tetrasperma, while it isn’t in the Monstera (family?) it does look quite like one- downside is that depending on where you live these can be very costly.(Pic. Is not mine)

does that pot have a drain hole ... is it constantly watered by that tube ... if it has roots why is it in that cabinet??? its probably time to put it in a pot appropriate to future growth ... and get it acclimated to not being in the cabinet ... its a plant .. not a baby.. its time to get it out of the nursery .... on some level.. you might be trying to love it to death .. but if you just stressed it by potting into this pot.. let it settle down .. before you repot or start the hardening off process .. one stress at a time .. ken
