Rhaphidophora Tetrasperma White Monster requires careful attention to its unique growth pattern. The new white leaves are sensitive to light and humidity and should be protected from direct sunlight to prevent burn. As the leaves transition to green, maintaining consistent humidity is key to preserving its striking variegation. Like many variegated plants, it is prone to root rot if overwatered. This variety is best suited for experienced plant owners who can provide the ideal care conditions for healthy growth and vibrant coloration.
