Monstera maderaverde

A small cloud-forest Monstera endemic to the Cordillera Nombre de Dios in northern Honduras, recorded only at 1010–1160 m. It climbs flat against trunks and also produces hanging stems, with broadly ovate leaves just 13–16 cm long that rarely have holes. Its small size suits a large terrarium or cork mount.
