House plants have always been a big trend in interiors. I am totally taken in by this trend and really feel that it just takes a single house plant to breathe life into a space. My personal favourites are succulents but there are certain house plants which makes me add to my collection and the one I want most at the moment are the split leaf Philodendron plant (Monstera deliciosa). This wonderful plant has striking heart-shaped foliage and is quite easy to grow and maintain. It can be used as a focal point in any interior garden. It is a climber and in its native habitat, Central America it can grow up to a height of almost 70 ft by attaching itself to the trunks of the majestic trees in the rainforest. It is a personal favourite of many interior stylists and plant lovers across the world and its beautiful heart-shaped leaves has inspired artists, textile designers and ceramicists alike.
Let’s take a look at this amazing plant and a few really stylish spaces where this plant has managed to steal the limelight…….
The leafs of the Monstera deliciosa are truly magnificent with all its heart-shaped splendour and is a top favourite amongst designers and florists for single leaf arrangements without flowers……a single leaf is all you will need.

The fourth and fifth pictures don’t show Monstera deliciosa. The fourth might be a Thaumatophyllum xanadu or a Philodendron radiatum or something similar – I’m not entirely sure – but the fifth is definitely a Thaumatophyllum bipinnatifidum.

Thank you so much Ben for reading my post. Thank you so much for the information you have provided, I just simply love philodendrons and must educate myself about the wide variety of plants available.
