Why are the leaves on my Rhaphidophora not getting the usual fenestration and splits?
You may have a young plant, only mature Rhaphidophora become fenestrated. If your plant is mature, the lack of fenestrations may be as a result of a lack of sunlight.
How do I get my Rhaphidophora to climb?
These plants are natural climbers, you can allow it to climb up a moss pole or trellis but it will need support and ties to do so in order for aerial roots to attach.
