Monstera subpinnata is a rare tropical climbing species known for its unique feather-like leaves composed of long, graceful pinnae. Unlike typical Monsteras, this species forms a flowing, palm-like silhouette, adding movement and architecture to any collection.
Native to the cloud forests of Ecuador and Colombia, it thrives when given something to climb. With a moss pole or totem, leaves elongate and develop deeper segmentation, creating a sculptural, airy presence in the home or greenhouse.
A fast-growing and highly sought-after collector aroid.
