| This plant's large leafs are famous for appearing on Hawaiian quilts. |
The Monstera is known for being very large as you can tell by the name. It is commonly used in floral arrangements, a design for quilt making and in local designs of cloth. It is a great garden or houseplant. This plant is also unique in that the ripe flesh of the fruit is edible and it has a tropical fruit salad flavor. A huge thing to note is that the foliage and unripe fruit are actually poisonous and contain calcium oxalate which can cause severe irritation in the mouth.
