Monstera Obliqua var. Expilata
Monstera Obliqua var. Expilata
For the collectors, the completists and the quietly obsessed - I'm the Monstera Obliqua var. Expilata. My family is famous for growing leaves that are up to 90% hole: thin as tissue, more absence than presence, the most extreme fenestration in the houseplant world. The Expilata variety is the subtler, less-perforated end of the obliqua spectrum - rare taste for rare tastes.
I'm a slow, deliberate grower that rewards patience: warm spot, high humidity, bright indirect light, and soil kept consistently just-moist. Not a beginner plant - a trophy plant.
What you'll get (no surprises):
- One size - a young collector's specimen in its grower's nursery pot
Pets: rare, refined, and still not edible - toxic if chewed.
Keep my moisture dialled in with a Moisture Meter and give me a Micro Pot in White pedestal while I'm young.
🌱 One tree planted with every order.
Care Tips
When the plant is actively growing during the warmer months, it needs a bit more food and water. During the slow growing season (cooler winter months) your plant doesn’t eat or drink as much (no extra winter layer of fat for these babies).
