Monstera Deliciosa at Vida Lotus

This ornamental plant, Monstera Deliciosa, has recently become quite popular in exotic flower shops. It grows natively here at the Vida Lotus headquarters and in the national park nearby. It unique and striking appearance is characterized by naturally-occurring slits and holes in random places throughout its broad leaf. As its name implies, the leaf is large and “deformed” (like a beautiful monster) and its tubular fruit is delicious.
