About the genus

About Monstera

The Monstera genus, part of the Araceae (Aroid) family, is comprised of 59 species of plants native to the tropical regions of America. Monstera, particularly the ever-popular Monstera deliciosa, are popular as ornamentals indoors and outdoors due to their unmistakable fenestrated foliage.

In nature monstera are considered hemiepiphytes, where they spend part of their lifespan as rooted vines and eventually climb their way up to the forest canopy where they can continue to survive independent from the soil below.

Besides Monstera deliciosa, popular varieties include Monstera adansonii, Monstera siltepecana, and Monstera karstenianum 'Peru'.
