DESCRIPTION:

Monstera is a genus of tropical climbing plants native to the rainforests of Central and South America, where they grow under the canopy and climb trees in search of light. Known for their dramatic split or fenestrated leaves, Monstera are fast-growing and adaptable, making them a striking and easy-care choice for indoor collectors.

Monstera adansonii sp. 'Double Windows'—often mislabeled as Monstera acuminata—is a distinctive cultivar renowned for its symmetrical fenestrations that align on both sides of the midrib, creating a striking "double window" effect. This unique form was originally found at Fairchild Botanical Gardens, adding to its allure among collectors . As it matures, 'Double Windows' develops larger, more skeletal leaves reminiscent of Monstera obliqua, while maintaining the vigorous climbing habit and ease of care characteristic of M. adansonii. Ideal for vertical displays, this cultivar thrives in bright, indirect light and brings a sculptural elegance to any plant collection. This cultivar sports striking mint variegation.
