Re: Chaos in Monstera names


Harry,

In the wild R. decursiva grows in very shady, perhumind forest in deep 
valleys or on the northern exposure of mountains or north-facing cliffs. As 
I mentioned in an earlir posting it can get VERY large and along with R. 
megaphylla and R.eximia is probably among the largest of all linanescet 
aroids.

Pete
