The green Siam ruby is really bright! Nice plants, Gabe.
The more common name for that plant climbing onto the palm tree is Monstera. Check out this URL: http://www.ccenassau.org/hort/fact_s...dron_mar00.pdf and the accompanying illustration on the following excerpt:
Long-leaved types that require support on bark or totem poles. Philodendron pertusum (Correctly known as Monstera deliciosa) - Juvenile form has perforated leaves that are irregularly shaped. Adult form has broad, thick leaves with many perforations. Common name - Swiss Cheese plant. A-1-11 DWM/ln reviewed RT 3/00 Philodendron cordatum. Monstera deliciosa
