# I got this plant as a cutting. It had a split leaf on it but that…

_Posted by Stephanie on 2025-05-07_

I got this plant as a cutting. It had a split leaf on it but that part died while it was trying to grow roots in water. I'm trying to figure out what it is. I believe it's a type of monstera but I'm not sure. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Try to Google it. I’m not sure if you can take a picture of it or not and look it up.

It tells me it's a pothos. Lol I know that's not it

Geez. Well I tried lol 🤷🏻‍♀️ There is apps you can download and take pictures of your plants and they will tell you the name of the plant. I use the app called Plantum and I think it is pretty accurate.
