*Rhaphidophora cf. korthalsii* is an unidentified but closely related form to *Rhaphidophora korthalsii*, a widespread shingling aroid native to Southeast Asia. This species is known for its small, round to oval juvenile leaves that press tightly against vertical surfaces. With maturity, the leaves can enlarge considerably and may develop more elongated or altered shapes depending on conditions. The “cf.” designation indicates uncertainty in the exact identification, but it is clearly allied to *R. korthalsii*.
**Light Requirements:** Bright, indirect light. Avoid harsh direct sun.
**Humidity Requirements:** Moderate to high, 60–85%. Thrives in terrariums, cabinets, or greenhouse environments.
**Temperature Range:** 65–85°F (18–29°C). Keep above 60°F (16°C).
**Growth Habit:** Shingling climber with juvenile leaves tightly appressed to climbing surfaces; mature leaves enlarge and elongate with vertical growth.
**Soil:** Well-draining tropical aroid mix with bark, perlite, or coco chips. Mounting is also suitable for maintaining shingling form.
**pH:** Slightly acidic to neutral, 5.5–6.5.
**Size:** Juvenile leaves 2–4 cm; mature leaves can grow substantially larger when provided with adequate climbing support.
