Hi Russ & everybody,
Thank you, Russ, I was kind of wondering about that,
lol. I had been asked if that was the variety I had, and I didn't know. I had
seen the Thai Constellation on a website, and saw that, like you mentioned,
it was more expensive with that name attached. Ha Ha!
Thanks again,
Sherry

question..
Sherry, regarding your question
about the name Thai Constellation, that name is simply a renaming for
commercial purposes
of an old variegated form of Monstera deliciosa.
You may in fact see the same clone with other names from other commercial
sources. Catchy new names on plants that have been around for
decades seems to be the order of the day with nurseries these
days.

Hi Marek and all the Folks on Aroid-l,
I think you are right about M. deliciosa
'Borsigiana'. I have the variegated form and have found that it
grows at a reasonable quick rate. I would like thank everyone who
gave me information! I do also have the Rhaphidophora tetrasperma, M. adansonii & a couple of others as well, so I'm pretty sure
these aren't the same plant. The larger leaved variegated Monstera deliciosa
is younger than the small leaved form, and I'm pretty sure they're not going
to get any larger, at least nowhere near the size of the other. So many
questions! 
Thank you, and the other folks who spoke
up, for helping me out on this.

Re: [Aroid-l] Monstera question..
Helo,
Monstera pertusa (propeerly M. adansonii) is a quite
different species,
I think you writing about the smaller form of M.
deliciosa you mean M. delicosa 'Borsigiana'
Don't be deceived by the filename, once I also
thought it was M. pertusa.
