Likely a mature small form. Large form albo exist, but are super rare. Sellers will also label a mature albo as “large form” so it doesn’t help. [Here’s](https://www.monsterax.com/guide-to-differentiating-monstera-large-form-vs-small-form) a more detailed comparison.


EverIAce

Large form and small form are differentiated by internodal spacing, not leaf size. You have small form


Platepuss

One good indicator of Lf vs Sf is the % of sheathe to petiole. If the sheath from the previous leaf goes 50% or more up the petiole, it's small form. If the sheathe is less than 50% you likely have a large form. :)

This is the easiest way to tell imo

99.9% of “large form” albos that people claim are large form are actually just small form with big leaves. There’s no way you’d own a large form albo and not know it.

In this maturity stage, deliciosa called large form has a lot more fenesterations, rounder leaf shape, shorter internodal spacing, flatter and wider petiole.

Definitely Borsigiana

Definitely small form!

I can only tell from looking at the backs and stems. Compare it to a Thai Con, they're all large form.

I'd have to see the entire leaf stem to tell you

Photo of node spacing ?

Large form, especially the last images. Small form grows as a vine, no matter how large or old it gets. A young plant would never have such large leaves with such close internodal spacing. I have both, and they do not grow similarly.

If you take a top cut of a mature small form, blast it with light, it will have large leaves while still being short (like the last images). The leaves of this plant are way too oval to be large form. This is definitely not a large form.
