Monstera soared to popularity on home blogs and social media a couple years ago, but there is still some mystery surrounding this unusual plant, including how to care for it and which plants are true monsteras. Monstera deliciosa is perhaps the most iconic variety, but there are several other plants that sold under the label “monstera.” Before you buy, learn about the variety you’re choosing. In a nurturing environment, some types of monstera can grow to be 12-feet tall, while others rise to smaller dimensions.

Rubber Tree

Rubber trees are an ideal plant for beginner gardeners who want large statement plants but don’t want to spend a lot of money. While plant stores will charge mega bucks for rubber trees of several feet high, you can grow your indoor tree from a bargain 4-inch pot in almost no time. A short rubber tree can grow by as much as two feet in a single growing season, and can continue growing for almost as long as you allow it. If the plant outgrows its pot and becomes root bound, it’s time to repot. However, take care that you go up by only one pot size when replanting, as overpotting can cause the plant to experience root rot.

The original darling of plant bloggers, fiddle leaf fig remains a stunning option for home gardeners who want a large houseplant that makes a big statement. Place your fiddle leaf fig in a bright window and turn it every once in a while so the tree grows straight instead of leaning towards the light. Once you find the ideal spot for your tree, don’t move it: Fiddle leaf figs don’t respond well to frequent moves.

Croton

Colorful croton can reach heights of 8 feet but will usually grow to be about half that size when grown indoors. The leaves of this large houseplant tell a story: Vibrant color and dramatic veining indicates the plant is receiving the bright and indirect light it needs, while muted colors indicate the light is too low and burned leaves indicate the light is too direct.
