Monstera Deliciosa
₹1,850Big leavesMonstera deliciosa · 25 cm grow pot
Light 3 of 5Water 3 of 5Floor plant · 80–100 cm
The split-leaf plant everyone pictures. Ours are grown on for a year, so each one leaves with three or more fenestrated leaves.
Plants for the light you actually have.
Benches
Four benches in the glasshouse
Every plant lives on one of four benches. Pick one to see only what grows there; the finder keeps sorting them for your room.

Twelve plants on the benches this week. Each has its light and watering marked, so you can see what it wants before it comes home.
Thai Constellation
₹6,400Big leavesMonstera deliciosa variegata · 20 cm pot
Light 4 of 5Water 3 of 5Floor plant · 60–75 cm
Cream speckled across every leaf, no two alike. Slower than its green cousin and happier with more light.
Rubber Plant
₹1,450Big leavesFicus elastica · 20 cm pot
Light 4 of 5Water 2 of 5Floor plant · 70–90 cm
Thick, glossy, nearly black leaves you wipe once a month and otherwise leave alone. It forgives a missed watering.
Boston Fern
₹950FernsNephrolepis exaltata · 18 cm pot
Light 2 of 5Water 5 of 5Shelf · 40 cm across
Soft, frilled fronds that arch over the rim. It wants humidity — a bathroom with a window is its idea of home.
Asparagus Fern
₹780FernsAsparagus setaceus · 14 cm pot
Light 3 of 5Water 4 of 5Table · 35 cm
A cloud of feathery green that looks delicate and is not. Bright shade and a drink whenever the top of the soil dries.
Bird's Nest Fern
₹1,100FernsAsplenium nidus · 17 cm pot
Light 1 of 5Water 4 of 5Table · 45 cm
Wavy, apple-green blades unrolling from a furry centre. The plant we suggest most for a north-facing room.
SucculentsEcheveria elegans · 10 cm terracotta
Light 5 of 5Water 1 of 5Sill · 12 cm
Blue-grey rosettes dusted with bloom. A sunny sill, a proper drink, then nothing until the soil is bone dry.
SucculentsEchinocactus grusonii · 12 cm terracotta
Light 5 of 5Water 1 of 5Sill · 15 cm
A round, ribbed cactus with golden spines. Full sun, and a watering about once a month.
Jade Plant
₹890SucculentsCrassula ovata · 14 cm terracotta
Light 4 of 5Water 2 of 5Table · 30 cm
Fat, glossy leaves on a trunk that thickens year by year. Give it sun and it grows into a little tree.
Polka-dot Begonia
₹1,250Small spacesBegonia maculata · 14 cm pot
Light 3 of 5Water 4 of 5Table · 40 cm
Angel-wing leaves spotted silver on top and red underneath. Bright light, but out of the direct sun.
Mini Monstera
₹980Small spacesRhaphidophora tetrasperma · 14 cm pot
Light 3 of 5Water 3 of 5Shelf · 50 cm with pole
Split leaves at a quarter of the size. It climbs, so it comes tied to a coir pole to grow up.
Small spacesChlorophytum comosum · 15 cm hanging pot
Light 2 of 5Water 2 of 5Hanging · 40 cm trail
Arching striped leaves and baby plantlets on long runners. Easy on dim corners and missed waterings.
Nothing on this bench right now.
From the glasshouse
Grown on, not just passed on
Most plants spend months with us before they are listed here. This is what happens in that time.
- i
Grown on
Young plants come in from growers in Hoskote and spend six months to a year on our benches, potted up as they need it.
- ii
Hardened
A few weeks in the shade house before they are listed, so they are used to indoor light and not just the glasshouse.
- iii
Potted
In our own mix of cocopeat, bark, perlite and worm castings — matched to the plant, not one bag for all.
- iv
Packed
Watered two days before, the soil capped with paper, and the pot boxed upright with a care card that says what it wants.
After it comes home
Visit the glasshouse
Come and stand among them
The glasshouse is open most days. Bring a photo of your room and we will walk the benches with you. Write to us about a plant, an office or a sick leaf.
