I might be wrong here. I first thought it was the Swiss Cheese Plant or Split leaf Philodendron - but the leaves do not seem to be attached anywhere. I am convinced however, that it belongs to the same family - Araceae or Alocasia family. If it is the creeping one - Botanical name: Rhaphidophora decursiva or the Split leaf one then it is the Monstera deliciosa.

ReplyDeleteTo be frank, it is a learning experience for me too!!!
ReplyDeleteWe have these all over the place. We call them Piñanona. They develop large white flowers (6 in +, lily shaped) and later bear edible fruit, vaguely pineapple flavor and very acidic.
