Monstera deliciosa big leaves 140

Monstera deliciosa
Approx. 140cm+

Iconic, architectural, and unapologetically bold, the Monstera deliciosa is one of the most recognisable houseplants in the world, and for good reason. Native to the tropical rainforests of Central America, this climbing aroid is known for its dramatic, naturally split leaves, often described as prehistoric in form. In the wild, those fenestrations help the plant withstand heavy rainfall and capture light beneath dense jungle canopies.

As a houseplant, Monstera deliciosa delivers instant impact. With its large, glossy leaves and commanding height, it anchors a room and brings a sense of lush, indoor jungle living. Selected by The Secret PlantHouse for its sculptural presence and timeless appeal, this is a statement plant that works just as beautifully in modern interiors as it does in layered, plant-filled spaces.

This is greenery with confidence.

Care Guide
Light: Bright, indirect light. Tolerates some softer light but grows best with good brightness.
Water: Water when the top layer of compost has dried out. Avoid overwatering.
Humidity: Average to high. Enjoys occasional misting, especially in warmer months.
Care tip: Wipe the leaves regularly to remove dust and help them photosynthesise efficiently. A moss pole or support will encourage larger, more dramatic leaves over time.

A bold, design-led houseplant for homes that want impact, texture, and that unmistakable jungle feel.
