Plant Highlights
Botanical Name: Monstera sp. 'Burle Marx Flame'
Common Name: Burle Marx Flame Monstera
Foliage: Thick, rich green leaves with dramatic flame-like cuts and deep fenestrations that intensify with age
Growth Habit: Strong climbing vine — thrives on a moss pole or trellis for maximum leaf size and fenestration
Rarity: Highly sought-after collector aroid — one of the rarest Monstera varieties available online
Monstera Burle Marx Flame Care Guide
Light: Bright indirect light — the more light, the more dramatic the fenestrations; avoid direct harsh sun
Water: Water when the top 2–3 inches of soil dry out; never let it sit in soggy soil
Soil: Chunky, well-draining aroid mix with perlite and orchid bark to prevent root rot
Humidity: 60%+ preferred; use a humidifier for best growth and leaf development
Temperature: 65–85°F (18–29°C); protect from cold drafts and temps below 55°F
Fertilizer: Balanced liquid fertilizer monthly during spring and summer to fuel vigorous growth
Propagation & Common Issues
Propagation: Stem cuttings with at least one node and aerial root, rooted in water or moist sphagnum moss
Support: Provide a moss pole or coir pole — climbing triggers larger, more fenestrated leaves
Pests: Watch for spider mites, thrips, and mealybugs; inspect new growth regularly
Yellow leaves: Typically overwatering — allow soil to dry more between waterings
Slow fenestration: Needs more light or a climbing support to develop its signature flame-like cuts
Pro Tips for a Thriving Burle Marx Flame
Mount on a moss pole immediately — climbing dramatically accelerates leaf size and fenestration development
Keep humidity above 60% for the most spectacular foliage; a humidifier is your best investment
This is a slow-to-moderate grower — patience pays off with increasingly dramatic leaves over time
Pairs beautifully with other rare collector aroids like Alocasia, Philodendron, and Rhaphidophora varieties

Alocasia Variegated Frydek Brandie Perry
The plant did not arrive in great shape. However, it was an alocasia and I did not add insulation so this is not on the seller (and we all know alocasia does not travel well anddddd they come back)
From start to finish the transaction was amazing. They gave me a discount for my next order even though I didn't ask for one because I knew the risks, and they continued to answer my questions and help me! Will def order again from them and would encourage others to as well!
