Monstera

This is probably one of the most popular plants in existence! A native jungle plant, these babes naturally grow underneath the tree canopy and thrive in more humid conditions. There are many varieties of Monstera, most boasting a beautiful bright green- but there are super rare varieties of variegated Monsteras that we always keep an eye on!
