Houseplant Size Guide
At Houseplant.co.uk, we want to ensure that you choose the perfect plant for your space. Here's how we measure our plants:
Plant Height:
Measured from the base of the nursery pot to the top of the plant, including the full length of the stem and foliage.
Pot Size:
Refers to the total width across the top of the pot.
Choosing the Right Size
To find the perfect fit, compare the diameter of your plant's grow pot to the opening diameter of your chosen decorative pot. Ensure the decorative pot is at least 1-3cm larger in diameter than the grow pot for easy insertion and removal.
Important Notes
- Plant sizes are approximate and include the depth of the plant pot and roots, not just the height from the top of the soil.
- If a specific plant size is not available, we may provide a larger plant at no additional cost to you.

These fun Monkey Mask plants are flowering aroid plants. In wild Central and South America they'll be found growing deep in the jungles and clinging onto tree trunks galore. You can also find them around the Caribbean Islands. These are great growers and you'll have long vines that you'll be able to 'chop and prop' before you know. They are hungry and like plentiful feeding - it'll be a bit like having a teenage boy in the house but with air-purifying qualities you'll love.
Please note the 32cm option is by special order from the grower.

What is the Monstera Monkey Mask Known For?
The Monstera 'Monkey Mask', known for its luscious foliage with unique fenestrations, is celebrated as a captivating tropical plant. These characteristic holey leaves have earned it the affectionate nickname 'Swiss Cheese Plant' and make it a popular choice for adding a touch of the exotic to home décor.
What Is the History of the Monstera Monkey Mask?
Originating from the dense jungles of Central and South America, the Monstera Adansonii has been a part of local ecosystems for centuries. It was later discovered by western botanists and became a beloved ornamental plant, appreciated for its air-purifying qualities and its easy-going nature.
Where Does the Monstera Monkey Mask Originate?
Monstera Adansonii is a native to the understory of tropical forests across Central and South America. It's well-adapted to the warm and humid conditions found there, which should be mimicked in indoor environments for the plant to thrive.
Are Monstera Monkey Mask Toxic to Pets?
Monstera 'Monkey Mask' contains calcium oxalate crystals which can be irritating if ingested by pets. It's recommended to keep this plant out of reach of cats and dogs to prevent any potential harm, as it can cause oral irritation, pain, and swelling.

Bit of a disaster really. First time DX said they couldn't find the address. We contacted them and two days later the plant was delivered to a different address as they said they could not deliver to an address that was a pub, which is where my granddaughter is. Very strange. We now have the plant and considering what we paid for it, mainly because we wanted a larger plant, there are only two blooms on it. Disappointed to say the least
