Monstera dubia is a well known shingling Monstera with such a desirable growth
habit when juvenile that most enthusiasts barely recognize the adult form. This plant produces quarter size and up leaves with max size of the shingling leaves being around 8 inches. At this point, the plant pulls loose from its support and begins producing leaves which can be more than 2 feet long!
Recommended Fertilizer: SUNSHINE Robusta - Rapid Growth Booster
