About this plant

This vining monstera grows thin, bright green leaves that are full of oval holes, even when the plant is young. The effect is lacy and light, like a living window screen, and it fills out quickly in a good spot.

Bright, indirect light keeps the leaves large and the holes generous. Water when the top inch of soil is dry and do not let it sit wet. It likes some humidity, so a bathroom with a window or a spot near other plants suits it well.

Let the vines trail from a hanging pot or high shelf, or give it a moss pole or trellis to climb. Trim it to keep it full; the cuttings root easily in water and make great gifts.

From November to April, we recommend adding Winter Plant Shipping Protection (a heat pack) at checkout. Plants shipped in cold weather without it are not covered for cold damage.
