- Botanical Name: Monstera Dubia
- Common Names: Shingle Plant
- Description: Monstera dubia is one of the smaller, lesser-known monstera varieties, but it’s very beautiful and makes a great addition to any monstera lover’s houseplant collection. You can recognize Monstera dubia by the small, heart-shaped leaves, speckled with both light and dark green. The gorgeous light and dark green patterned leaves make this a beautiful plant. Monstera dubia is sometimes called the “shingle plant” because its leaves lie so flat against the trees it climbs in the wild, creating the appearance of shingles.
