Monstera Deliciosa

from 650 MDL

The name of this plant, Monstera deliciosa, aptly translates as ‘delicious monster’. The ‘monster’ part probably refers to its huge, shiny leaves, while ‘delicious’ comes from its tasty fruit, which has a flavour reminiscent of pineapple and banana.

 

Monstera has lobed leaves because it grows naturally in the shady jungles of Central America. These notches allow light to reach the lower leaves. When young, the leaves are heart-shaped and have no holes. As the plant matures and receives sufficient light and water, it develops deep incisions.

 

Monstera is a constant source of inspiration in art and fashion and a good friend to anyone who cares for it. It prefers the soil to dry slightly between waterings. Remember to dust its majestic leaves regularly to help it absorb light and stay healthy.


The plant comes in a basic nursery pot.
