# Not too sure what to do with this rhaphidophora tetrasperma. I plan…

_Publié par Sa le 2025-01-13_

Not too sure what to do with this rhaphidophora tetrasperma. I plan on putting it on a trellis, but can’t yet. I’ve only had it for about a month and it has grown about twice the size, shooting out new stems and about 5 new leaves per week. Even with a trellis, I’m sure it will outgrow it very quickly. 🤣

Side note, it has some light variegation on one stem (Photo 3) that kind of reminds me of a less variegated thai con. It’s a little hard to see the smaller spots in the photo, but the larger ones are there. It just started doing this recently on a few leaves and I was wondering if there is any way to encourage the variegation to get stronger.

What’s your secret? I’ve had mine for months and it’s barely done anything. 😭

It is possible to pop up variegation. But a lot of times if it's a long standing green plant, it can be a nutrient deficiency, like potassium. Especially if they've been growing a ton. The best way to encourage is to cut back to that node, so the node that popped out sport variegation (if thats what it is) will have new growth, that's also varigated
