🌿 Why does it have holes in its leaves?

Fenestrations (perforations) are a natural adaptation of the plant to the tropical environment. They allow light to reach the lower leaves and reduce leaf resistance to strong winds in the natural habitat. As the plant matures and receives enough light, the leaves become larger and develop more spectacular perforations.

📏 Mature size

• Height: 2-3 m indoors (with moss support or stake)
• Width: 1-1,5 m
• Leaf size: up to 60-90 cm in ideal conditions

🌿 About aerial roots

Monstera naturally produces aerial roots, which help it attach to trees in its tropical habitat. These are perfectly normal and can be directed towards a moss pole or left to grow freely. Their presence is a sign of a healthy and vigorous plant.

📌 Note: The number, shape, and size of the perforations naturally vary depending on the plant's age and growing conditions. The leaves may show small aesthetic imperfections, superficial marks, or developed aerial roots, all of which are normal characteristics of the species. Upon delivery, specimens may have leaves at different stages of maturity, without this affecting the plant's health or development.
