Monstera Dubia ‘Shingle Plant’

Botanical Name: Monstera dubia

Common Name(s): Shingle Plant, Monstera Dubia

The Monstera dubia, commonly known as the Shingle Plant, is a unique and rare species of Monstera that grows in a distinctive shingling pattern, with each leaf lying flat against its climbing surface. Native to Central and South America, this plant’s juvenile leaves are small and heart-shaped, but as it matures, it may develop the iconic Monstera fenestrations (splits) if provided with the right conditions. Monstera dubia grows as a compact vine, making it an intriguing choice for moss poles or other vertical supports.

This plant thrives in bright, indirect light and high humidity, mimicking the tropical rainforest conditions it’s accustomed to. It prefers well-draining soil that retains some moisture, and it’s best to allow the top layer of soil to dry slightly between waterings. The Shingle Plant can be somewhat finicky but rewards careful care with its unique, shingling growth habit.

The Monstera dubia is known to help purify the air by removing toxins and releasing oxygen. While all plants provide some degree of air purification, Monstera plants are particularly effective in larger spaces due to their size and leaf surface area.

Note: Monstera dubia is considered mildly toxic to pets and humans due to calcium oxalate crystals, which can cause irritation if ingested. Keep this plant out of reach of pets and small children to ensure safety.

Care Insights & Expert Tips

FAQs

Do you have a return or replacement policy for plants?

Due to the perishable nature of plants, we do not accept returns based on personal preference. Shipping live plants back and forth can cause unnecessary stress and jeopardize the health of the plant. We encourage customers to choose carefully before placing an order. Our risk-free, 30-day customer guarantee covers cases where plants arrive damaged, dead, sick, or incorrect items were sent. We will send you a replacement plant or provide a refund.

If there’s an issue with your order, please notify us within 30 days so we can address the issue as quickly as possible. To learn more, visit 30-Day Customer Guarantee. Refunds will be processed to the card or account used for your purchase and will typically be available in your bank in 3-5 business days from the date it was issued.

Can I order and receive plants during the winter?

Yes, we ship plants year-round! Our shipments are carefully packaged to ensure we deliver healthy plants to your door every day of the year. We monitor the weather across the country and will include heat packs at no extra charge to keep your plants warm during shipping. If weather conditions are extreme (e.g., storm or severe winter), we will inform you of an updated delivery date that we believe is more appropriate.

How can I change my order details?

To update your order details, please contact us within 24 hours of placing your order. We care about all our customers and will like to ship the correct item to the right location. We are not held responsible for orders shipped to incorrect addresses. In addition, we cannot cancel orders that has already been shipped.

If I order more than one plant, will they ship separately?

Items apart of the same order typically ship together. In rare circumstances, the items may ship from both our Southern California and Florida greenhouses and could arrive in separate packages at different times. For these instances, once each item is shipped, you'll receive individual tracking information for each package, so you can easily track their progress.

Where do you ship?

We currently ship to the contiguous United States which consists of the 48 U.S. states and the District of Columbia.

Do you offer same-day or next-day delivery?

Unfortunately, we do not offer same-day or next-day delivery. Plants require careful preparation and packaging to ensure they arrive healthy and in optimal condition, we take the necessary time to pack them properly. This ensures that your plants are shipped safely and arrive ready to thrive.
