Dragon's Tail Philodendron (Rhaphidophora decursiva) starts as oval and arrow-shaped leaves, but as he matures, his leaves grow into lobed leaves much like monstera. It's like having two plants in one! Watch this guy grow and he reaches new heights up to three feet long or tall, ascending up the coco coir pole. His shiny green leaves reach a lush 12-20 inches in length, making him a plant addict's popular choice.
