# I had originally ordered a Rhaphidophora decursiva (Dragons Tail)…

_Posted by Auxsman on 2026-01-13_

I had originally ordered a Rhaphidophora decursiva (Dragons Tail) from Rare Plant Fairy, since I wanted to expand my collection with a little pricey plant. They accidentally sold it on me through the chaos of the holidays but were kind enough to give me $35 credit on top of the money I already had spent, soo….

I got a Raphidophora Tetrasperma Albo Variegated! I was a little nervous at first because a lot of the mature leaves have been trimmed, a lot, but it came already in the process of uncurling a new leaf! Hopefully it acclimates quickly with its new soil and environment! I’ll post updates😁
