I need some help. I bought this monstera on clearance, I assumed because it was dying. I revived it, saw it was 2 separate plants, gave it a trim and now they're both very happy. However one is acting like a beautiful monstera as I expected and one is... not? What is this? It's happy whatever it's doing lol (I've added photos of the normal one plus growth photos of the Frankenstein one)
Those are all growth points with new growth. Looks like you have 4 new plants.

0 likes Let them grow a bit more if you want to cut and prop. Or just leave it to grow, you’ll have a fuller plant, and then you can cut it once it gets too full

I don't think these are monstera. They are Rhaphidophera tetrasperma... which unfortunately has a common name of "mini monstera" or "monstera Ginny"
2 likes Oh! I've never heard of that! I'll have to update my Planta if that's the case
0 likes It's a fairly common miss label. I couldn't see full pics of the leaves, but thats what the splits/fenestrations looked like to me. This is young monstera deliciosa.
And a more mature Rhaphidophera (varigated)
And a young one (varigated)
I found the green! Lol I only had varigated, but someone had sent me a green cutting.
Those are, like Mr. V said all growth points though. Which is awesome, because it means it's getting the care it needs to push out new growth instead of staying nekkid

And a top view of the growth
