About

Monstera vasquezii is a beautiful climbing aroid species native to Peru. It is similar to Monstera lechleriana but distinguished by its leaf shape and fenestrations. The mature leaves are large, broadly elliptic-ovate, and feature rows of small, round fenestrations along the midrib. The foliage is thick, leathery, and dark green. It climbs tree trunks using robust aerial roots and develops a spectacular, full appearance as it climbs.
