Monstero deliciosa, mapleton

Did anyone else call them Monsterio delicio's. I guess it is a flower. I know that the fruit can be eaten, but have never tried it.

Looks like a giant flower , how big is it ?

It's beautiful, but I have never heard of it.

@cocobella The flower part is about 23 cm high, so it is a big flower. It is called plant gruyere in French.

@ludwigsdiana It is a tropical plant - and a bit of a menace in some places. It was very popular as a house plant in Australia in the 1970s but I don't know if they fruit indoors. It is also called a Swiss cheese plant - and a few other names.

@pdulis Thanks Peter. Especially for my Nikon Coolpix P900 which doesn't have the sharpest lens in the world!
