Monstera laniata ‘True Form’ is a refined tropical climbing aroid known for its elegant fenestrations and rich emerald leaves.
Unlike the common obliqua-type variants, the true form develops thicker leaves with symmetrical, elongated perforations that extend gracefully toward the midrib.
Native to Central and South America, this species produces a lush, mature canopy ideal for totems or trellised interiors.
Each leaf displays a polished, leathery texture and a cascading tropical silhouette that instantly elevates any collection.
