Monstera is a magnificent climbing plant with leathery, glossy, and perforated leaves, popular as an indoor plant. Young plants have heart-shaped, undivided leaves, while mature plants develop split and often hole-punctured leaves, giving Monstera its iconic appearance. Monstera is commonly used to complete round biedermeier-style bouquets, where its striking leaves add a finishing touch.
Ecology and role in nature: Monstera originates from the tropical regions of Central and South America, where it grows as a climbing vine attached to trees. Its large leaves are adapted to capture light in dense forests, making it well-suited for low-light conditions.
Interesting facts: Monstera's eye-catching and aesthetic leaves have made it a popular decorative plant for interiors. Its name comes from the Latin word "monstrum," referring to its unusual, large leaves with natural holes that resemble artistic work created by nature.
Use in floristry: Monstera is frequently used to finish round bouquets, especially in biedermeier arrangements. Its large, split leaves add structure and elegance to floral designs. Thanks to its durability, Monstera is an excellent choice for floral decorations.
