This monstera variety with its unusual mint variegated leaves is not only a decorative eye-catcher, it is also rarely found on the market and therefore a very sought-after rarity among plant collectors. It is not very complicated to care for and also impresses with its ability to filter pollutants from the air, which means that it can actively improve the indoor climate.
