Monstera deliciosa
Spotted in a local garden ,i see this plant in gardens,since i was a kid the portuguese name is Adam ribbet http://www.google.pt/url?sa=t&rct=j&...
Yeah!popular names are very interesting,but i like more the latin names:-)
this one
Monstera Deliciosa,latin
Monstra Deliciosa,portuguese,it means (rufly traduce) delicious monster(femenin),it's very similar to portuguese and also funny as popular names are
@Thanks Donn for the precision on id

@:-)yes Karen,it's the image i have to,it seems it was"fashion" a few years ago tgo have one of those
I recall a time in the 1980's when nearly every English home seemed to have one of these languishing in a pot in a dark corner somewhere!
