Trailing
Commonly found hitching a ride up the sides of large tree trunks in the rainforests of Central and South America, this low maintenance cousin of the Monstera Deliciosa is beloved for similar reasons to its famous relative: the fenestrations, or holes, in its leaves.
Rafiki is a vine that likes to climb and its name means 'friend' in Swahili, the perfect nickname for such an easy-going plant. It only requires moderate light and periodic watering to survive, but give it more ideal conditions, and it'll grow like... well, like a vine!
Also known as Monkey Mask, Swiss Cheese Vine, Five Holes Plant.

from 677 reviewsWhat a fantastic concept. What incredible service.
AND the amazing quality of your plants.
I don't think I can do it any other way from here on.
service (didn’t catch the name since i’m dumb) was also lovely - picked up my plant on Tuesday Sept 29 at around 3
I ordered this for someone else and it came fully repotted and ready for her to put up! The delivery was also quick and they were very good at communicating
Warner the Dracaena Warneckii, Small
I LOVE Fondly plant store!!!!! I bought alot of plants the only one didn't died on me was Grace but my cat destroyed x2 of Grace (yes my cat destroyed the second Grace plant along with my dishes). I love the service and delivery is awesome, the politeness and the understanding the helpfulness etc. I am planning to buy more plants but I am trying to figure out where to put them but tape the bottom of the pots? I did wrote a first review its same thing this place is awesome. If only im not bad with plants kinda and my cat isn't bad then the whole pet friendly category plants will be all over my apartment (I am secretly trying to make it happen) the picture is a BEFORE picture before grace destroyed by my cat and the ledge was only temporary.
Schedule is on time and packaged perfectly.
Thank you
