Wrong name! This is Rhaphidophora decursiva.

Rhaphidophora decursiva and Epipremnum pinnatum look somewhat similar from a distance when mature, but the immature plants as shown here look nothing alike. In my photo, R. decursiva is on the left and E. pinnatum on the right.

This mislabelling of R. decursiva is rampant in Australia and seemingly nowhere else. I have bought both species with the exact same mass-produced tag showing a picture of R. decursiva with the name of E. pinnatum, and I've seen tags like this produced by multiple companies.

Mislabelling plants is false advertising. I know of at least one person who only wants to grow Australian natives who was tricked into buying R. decursiva mislabelled as E. pinnatum.

Fix this!
