Interesting comment on the flowering Brian. Mine are up 25 and 30 metres in the trees, and hanging down to the ground. But I've never noticed (nor ever looked for) flowers. I'll have to keep a look out, but probably need binoculars if they're up near the top.

MaryEv, Smurf's suggestion is a good one. Monstera deliciosa seems to prefer a cooler climate. I've seen them grow quite large and fast in cooler areas but at my place (hot tropics) although they do grow, they are very slow. I've a small one that's probably not even doubled its size in about 4 years.
