{"product_id":"monstera-siltepecana","title":"Monstera siltepecana - Silver Vine","description":"\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThis Monstera's fast-growing vines sport narrow, silver-green leaves with contrasting deep forest green veins. While these leaves start small and delicate in their juvenile form, they mature to get stronger and develop fenestrations like its well-known Swiss Cheese Plant cousins. In your home, it will look fabulous trailing from a shelf or hanging basket, or trained up a moss pole for some added height. Keep it happy in a bright spot out of direct sun, and somewhere it gets above-average humidity, and it will reward you with more stunning foliage and perfect rainforest vibe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eScientific Name\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cem\u003eMonstera siltepecana\u003c\/em\u003e (monster from Siltepec, Mexico)\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThis plant was first named in a 1950 paper, and has retained the same classification ever since.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eCommon Name\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eSilver Monstera, Silver Vine, Swiss Cheese Plant\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eOrigin\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eNative to Central America, ranging from the Gulf and Southern parts of Mexico through Belize, El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eLight\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eThrives in bright, indirect light.
