Origin
The Monstera obliqua 8/tray, also known under the name Monstera adansonii, is originally from the tropical regions of Central and South America. Its natural habitat consists of the humid and warm undergrowth of rainforests. The plant climbs up trees and rocks to capture as much light as possible.

Characteristics
Characteristics of the Monstera obliqua 8/tray include large, heart-shaped leaves with characteristic holes. These holes are an adaptation to capture more light in its natural, shaded habitat. The plant can climb to a height of 3-4 metres and rarely produces flowers in the form of a colossal cob, surrounded by a white bract. The Monstera obliqua 8/tray is a favourite houseplant due to its unique and decorative leaves.

Care
The Monstera obliqua 8/tray has specific care requirements in order to thrive. The plant needs a light location, but direct sunlight should be avoided as this can burn the leaves. In addition, the plant prefers high humidity and should be watered regularly, but without a surplus of water being created. This is an indoor plant, so it is not hardy to the cold. It is recommended to feed the plant regularly during the growing season.
