Monstera 'Burle Marx Flame'
This rare Monstera is celebrated for its flame-like leaves and ability to climb quickly
Named after the famous Brazilian landscape architect Roberto Burle Marx, the origin of this plant is a bit of a mystery. Although it's natural origin is unknown, it was known that Roberto was the first to have this plant in his private collection
Bright light, warmth and some humidity will keep this plant happy. Potting into a chunky soil mix and watering when the top soil is dry will help prevent rotting and loss of leaves. Some sort of support for the plant to climb will allow the plant to size up quickly. Regular feeding will provide your plant with enough nutrients to thrive and grow prolifically.
