Rhaphidophora tetrasperma 'Goldrush', often called 'Goldrush' mini monstera, is a striking and fast-growing climbing plant prized for its variegated foliage and fenestrated leaves. This Rhaphidophora cultivar features bright yellow-green marbled leaves, sometimes with fully yellow leaves, and develops distinctive splits in its leaves as it matures. Its vigorous vining growth and unique coloration make it a popular choice for indoor plant enthusiasts. It belongs to the Araceae family.

Origin: Rhaphidophora tetrasperma is native to southern Thailand and Malaysia. 'Goldrush' is a cultivated variety developed for its yellow and green variegation, not found in the wild.

Appearance:

  • Features soft yellow-green marbled leaves, with occasional fully yellow leaves.
  • Develops deeply split leaves as it matures.
  • Has a vigorous vining habit.

Care:

  • Light: Thrives in bright, indirect light. Direct sunlight can scorch the leaves, while low light can cause variegation loss and leggy growth.
  • Water: Water when the top 2-3 cm of soil are dry. Ensure good drainage to prevent root rot.
  • Humidity: Benefits from increased humidity. Using a humidifier can be helpful.
  • Temperature: Prefers warm temperatures. Protect from cold drafts.
  • Soil: Aroid mix with bark, coco coir, and perlite is ideal for good aeration and drainage.
  • Support: Provide a moss pole or trellis for climbing.

Toxicity: Toxic to pets and humans if ingested.
