Mini Monstera is the small version of the Monstera and is mainly known for its huge, green leaves that will give your house a tropical look. 

In its natural habitat, the Mini Monstera is a climbing vine, so providing a moss pole or other support indoors will encourage healthy growth. 

But you have to be careful with this one, since, like many Aroid plants, all parts of the Mini Monstera are considered toxic if ingested, so keep it out of reach of pets and young children.
