Description
Turn a vertical space into a living display with Monstera dubia. This climbing aroid produces heart-shaped juvenile leaves with silver-green patterning and darker veins. As it climbs, the leaves press close to the support and overlap in its distinctive “shingling” habit.
Offered growing on a wooden plank in a nursery pot, as shown in our product photo. This specimen displays juvenile shingling foliage; leaf shape and appearance can change as the plant matures.

Caring for the climbing plank
Keep the plank securely upright and allow the growing tip to follow its surface. If support is needed, use a loose, soft plant tie around the stem; do not puncture leaves or stems. Once the vine reaches the top, provide a taller support so it can continue climbing. Avoid pulling attached aerial roots away from the board.
