Theobroma Cacao Tree
ID: #604950
Description
Bring the rich history of the tropics into your home with Theobroma cacao , widely known as the Cacao tree or Chocolate Tree. This botanical marvel allows you to connect with a centuries-old legacy by growing your very own cacao beans right at home. With a few simple steps to create the perfect environment, this exotic plant can be easy to care for and the perfect addition for anyone who wants to celebrate their love for chocolate or who dreams of one day harvesting, fermenting, and roasting their own. This tropical beauty thrives in bright, indirect light and loves a humid environment with moist, well-draining soil. It is best grown in containers indoors or in a greenhouse (though it loves a vacation outdoors during the warmer months!), but if you live in USDA Zones 10-13 and your average annual winter temperatures don't fall below 50°F, it can be grown directly in-ground outdoors. Why You'll Love It: Own a piece of botanical history with the actual plant that produces cacao beans! Adapts well to containers, making it simple to manage indoors or move outside Delicate flowers grow directly out of the main trunk and older branches Large, colorful cacao pods grow straight off the bark for a truly rare look

Monstera Deliciosa
$69.00
The Monstera Deliciosa, sometimes also known as the Swiss Cheese Plant, is a striking tropical houseplant famous for its large, fenestrated (fancy word for "holes") leaves. It’s popular not just for its dramatic foliage, but also for being surprisingly easy to care for —it thrives in indirect sunlight and is forgiving of both missed and over-watering. As it matures, its leaves develop unique natural holes and splits (that's fenestration!), giving any space a lush, modern jungle feel. With support, it can climb and grow impressively tall, adding vertical interest to interiors. Perfect for beginners and plant lovers alike, Monstera Deliciosa is both a conversation piece and a reliable, low-maintenance addition to any indoor plant collection. Each plant is unique; size and shape fluctuate by season so all measurements are shown as a range Medium plant measures 12-24 inches tall from bottom of the grow pot to the top of the foliage Large plant measures between 22-24 inches tall from bottom of the grow pot to the top of the foliage Arrives in a nursery grow pot nestled in your planter choice If you purchase a large plant with a planter, the planter will ship separately
