Most Monsteras climb up and spread outward — the Dubia does something entirely different: its heart-shaped, glossy dark green leaves press flat against whatever surface they climb, tiling like roof shingles in a way no other Monstera variety does. This rare shingling behaviour, combined with the prominently veined leaves and compact growth in juvenile form, is exactly what makes it a sought-after find among rare plant collectors across India. Comes in a 10cm pot, making it an ideal starter size for a desk, shelf, or windowsill with a small moss pole or piece of cork bark to get it climbing. If you've been wanting to try something genuinely unusual in the Monstera family, this is the one.
