It's possible the foliage was so thick before that I couldn't see these sprouting up.

New plant dad that mistook this for a monstera, given some advice but not sure how to go about it. Asking for more clarification

Hi! For some context, originally I had posted asking for advice for this plant due to it being neglected. In a nutshell, the soil is compacted, it’s a couple years old, and had been completely bare at the node aside from one single stem (it has since grown into this).
I was told to replace the soil and seperate the plants but I’m honestly not sure what they meant by separating the plants. Do they mean the nodes?
My question for you, is it the best course of action to separate the nodes and replace the soil completely? I’m mostly just worried because I’m a somewhat inexperienced plant dad. I’ve never even replaced soil before, I worry about damaging or killing it. I’d rather not seperate the nodes due to that fear and due to not having much space in my home (and moving soon), is it necessary to separate them?

What is this?

I’ve been taking care of this plant at my work for a couple of years but I don’t know what it is. I thought it was maybe a thaumatophyllum but the leaves don’t quite look like that to me.

Too much density?

This thing is a beast and keeps growing no matter what. This pot has got to be too small, no? For reference the top of the white is about two feet off of the floor and the top of the topmost leaf about five feet off of the floor.

Does anyone else grow T. bipinnatifidum outdoors in zone 9b? (I'm in Las Vegas)

Specifically curious about those with experience planting them in-ground.

Mine are currently all in 5 gallon pots on our East-facing front porch, which is mostly shaded by three large mesquite trees. They receive minimal morning sun, which makes me worry that they'll lose their GoG variegation from too much shade, but I also don't want them to burn.

We have two mature eucalyptus trees and two mature pine trees, along with the three mesquite. I'm tempted to experiment with planting one of my T. bipinnatifidum at the base of one of the seven mature trees. I just don't know where to begin.

(Pic of a leaf from one of my three green-on-green variegated babies for attention. 🖤)

Pollin !!

I have acquired a lil but of pollen from the spadex and have carefully placed them into the other bloom and will wait for it to do it’s thing . It really has a strong smell like fruity and citrusy. The dap is super sticky which is why it’s able to
Close so tight . There is a great deal of liquid at the bottom where the female part is at already . Also this thing was super warm I took my thermal gun to it & it was 94 degrees ! Hope you like the pics . I’ll update to see if it’s successful Pollination .
