The Monstera Deliciosa, also known as the Hole Plant, is a striking green houseplant with large, heart-shaped leaves that contain characteristic holes and notches. This unique feature makes the plant a real eye-catcher in any interior.
This houseplant is a climbing plant that clings to trees with its aerial roots in its natural habitat, the dense jungles of the Southern Hemisphere. The holes in the leaves help the plant to capture more light for the leaves below, which is essential in the dense, shady jungles.
The Latin name 'Monstera' refers to the bizarre, almost monstrous appearance of the large, perforated leaves, while 'Deliciosa' refers to the edible fruits the plant produces in its natural environment. These fruits are known for their delicious taste.
The Monstera Deliciosa originates from the tropical rainforests where it enjoys a moist, warm environment with plenty of shade. This makes caring for this plant relatively easy and suitable for both beginners and more experienced plant enthusiasts.
The Torun plant basket is a trendy plant basket. Lined with a strong inner pocket and has a sturdy natural look. You can place the plant in the basket with or without a nursery pot. It is important to always place a thin layer of hydro granules on the bottom so that the plant does not stand with its feet in the water. The excess water will then be absorbed by the granules.
