May I introduce MIKE WAZOWSKI to you? (I know, probably NOT an original name…naming a Monstera after a Monsters, Inc character.)

Cute! But why is it registered as a M Deliciosa when it's a Adansonii? 🙃

Idk, just got him at a plant expo yesterday (maybe he switched name tags with his buddy as a joke)  
No, really, PLANTA guided me that way (at least, that’s my story \& I’m sticking to it)

Definitely an adansonii😇😇

👍 I had the wrong ID tag on several of plants bought at big plant shops. For example my Adansonii was tagged as a Obliqua (which was then much more rare and expensive) The two look a bit similar but have different needs and speeds of growth (?) which made it more difficult for me to know how to care for it properly 🤷🏼‍♀️
