Collection: MONSTERA Plants Collections | Rakayana Agrinusa
Monstera is a genus of 49 species of flowering plants in the arum family, Araceae, native to tropical regions of the Americas.
The leaves are alternate, leathery, dark green, very large, from 25–90 centimetres (9.8–35.4 in) long (up to 130 centimetres (51 in) long in M. dubia) and 15–75 centimetres (5.9–29.5 in) broad, often with holes in the leaf blade. The fenestrated leaves allow for the leaves to spread over greater area to increase sunlight exposure, and to allow light to reach other leaves below, by using less energy to produce and maintain the leaves.
