The Monstera Dubia comes from the tropics in Central and South America and grows in the wild flat up tree trunks. You get with us a young plant that is attached to a piece of wood. The young leaves are silvery and interspersed with green leaf veins. They are heart-shaped and tend to grow flat upwards. The leaves grow larger and greener over time with climbing aids and proper care, and on adult plants the leaves form slits similar to the popular Monstera Deliciosa.
