Rhaphidophora korthalsii 'Marble'
Rhaphidophora korthalsii 'Marble' is an exceptionally rare climbing aroid prized for its breathtaking marbled foliage. Each thick, leathery leaf is generously splashed with creamy yellow, lime and green variegation, creating a unique mosaic pattern that becomes even more impressive as the plant matures. Naturally climbing tree trunks in the rainforest, it develops larger, more dramatic foliage when grown on a moss pole.
This highly sought-after cultivar thrives in warm, humid conditions with bright, indirect light. Its vigorous climbing habit and striking variegation make it an outstanding centrepiece for plant cabinets or indoor jungle displays. As with all variegated plants, each leaf develops its own unique pattern, ensuring every specimen is completely individual.
- Other names: Rhaphidophora korthalsii 'Marble Aurea' or 'Marble Aura'
- Useful to know: Toxic if ingested - not safe for pets and children
- Eventual height: Climbs to 2-4m indoors with support
- Origins: Variegated cultivar of a species native to the tropical rainforests of Southeast Asia
Rhaphidophora Care Sheet
Light: Bright, indirect light is essential to maintain strong variegation. Avoid prolonged direct sun, which can scorch the leaves.
Water: Water thoroughly when the top few centimetres of compost begin to dry. Never allow the plant to sit in water.
Soil/Nutrition: Grow in a chunky, free-draining aroid mix containing bark, perlite and coco coir. Feed monthly during spring and summer.
Humidity: Prefers humidity above 60%. Excellent for plant cabinets or warm, humid rooms. A moss pole encourages larger, more mature foliage.
Pruning and propagation: Trim long stems to maintain shape or propagate easily from stem cuttings with at least one node.
Experience level: Intermediate.
