🌿 Graphic perforated foliage • ☀️ Bright indirect light • 💧 Hydroponic cultivation • 🪴 Glass jar • 📏 H25 cm | Jar Ø12 cm
This Monstera Adansonii in a spherical glass jar is an original plant feature cultivated hydroponically in an elegant round jar sealed with a natural cork stopper. Its perforated leaves and visible root system in the glass sphere create a graphic, natural arrangement — a distinctive piece among plants in vases.
Native to the tropical forests of Central and South America, Monstera adansonii naturally grows by climbing tree trunks in humid undergrowth. The natural cork stopper serves a dual purpose here — it keeps the plant suspended above the water while allowing the roots to spread freely inside the jar. Delivered ready to display, it looks equally at home on a desk or wrapped as an original plant gift.
Exposure & placement
The Monstera Adansonii in a jar thrives near a well-lit window without direct sun - bright indirect light is ideal for keeping its perforations well defined and its foliage dense and glossy.
- Exposure: bright indirect light to partial shade.
- Ideal for: desk, shelf, coffee table or well-lit windowsill.
- Use: indoors only.
- Temperature: 18 to 25 °C, protected from drafts and direct heat sources.
Turn the jar a quarter turn every 2 weeks to balance growth and create a harmonious shape from every angle.
Watering & care
Hydroponic cultivation considerably simplifies care. The specific feature of this jar with a stopper is that you should open it once a week to aerate it and prevent excessive condensation, which can encourage mold growth.
- Water level: maintain a constant level - the roots should be partially submerged without the stopper soaking in the water.
- Water change: replace the water every 2 to 3 weeks to keep the roots healthy.
- Water: use room-temperature water that has been left to stand for a few hours to remove chlorine.
- Aeration: open the stopper once a week for a few hours to refresh the air inside the jar.
- Fertilizer: add a few drops of liquid fertilizer for hydroponic plants once a month in spring and summer.
- Cleaning: wipe the leaves with a damp cloth and clean the jar each time you change the water.
Decor ideas & plant combinations
With its spherical shape and natural cork stopper, this jar adds an organic, sculptural touch that the cylindrical vase does not — it fits equally well into contemporary tropical settings and minimalist interiors.
- Create a contrasting hydroponic trio by pairing this spherical jar with a Monstera Adansonii in a cylindrical vase and a Clusia in a cylindrical jar with stopper — the same glass plant aesthetic, three very different container shapes for a graphic, cohesive arrangement.
- Place it on a desk or console alongside a hydroponic Clusia in a sphere with a cork stopper — two spherical jars, two plants with very different foliage, and the same clean, cohesive aesthetic.
- Incorporate it into the Trio of hydroponic plants in glass bottles with wooden bases for a modern, organic plant arrangement ready to display on a console or coffee table.
- For an original plant gift, pair it with the Monstera Adansonii & Clusia duo in a cylinder - two formats, two glass shapes, and the same graphic, contemporary aesthetic.
Verdeia tips
- Aerate the jar once a week: the airtight stopper creates a humid micro-environment that benefits the plant, but weekly air renewal prevents excessive condensation and mold growth on the cork stopper.
- Change the water every 2 to 3 weeks: regular replacement prevents algae formation, keeps the roots healthy and extends the plant's life - gently rinse the roots and clean the inside of the jar at the same time.
- Keep it away from direct sun behind glass: in summer, sun concentrated through the spherical glass quickly heats the water and can cook the roots - place the jar at least 50 cm from a south- or west-facing window, and follow the advice on light and humidity to optimize its placement.

Our Verdeia commitments
FAQ – Everything to know before adopting your Verdeia plant
How are my plants prepared before shipping?
All our plants are selected from our European partner nurseries. Before shipping, they are watered, cleaned, and protected with breathable, secure packaging. Each package is designed to ensure your plant arrives in perfect health, without any transport-related stress.
Will the plant look exactly like the photo?
The photos accurately represent the variety and the stated size. Since each plant is unique, slight differences in shape, foliage, or color may occur — and that’s part of their charm.
What are the delivery times and conditions?
Orders ship within 48 working hours, with tracked delivery in 2 to 5 working days via DPD. Shipping costs and the free-shipping threshold depend on your country — see our delivery page. You receive a tracking link as soon as your parcel leaves.
What should I do when my plant arrives?
Open your package as soon as you receive it and carefully remove the plant from its packaging. Let it acclimate for 24 hours in its new environment before watering. If it has been slightly stressed during transport, it will recover its shape after one or two days in the light.
What should I do if my plant arrives damaged?
Contact us within 48 hours with a photo of the issue. Our team will assess the situation and offer you the best solution: replacement, partial refund, or recovery advice.
Can I return a plant?
Since plants are living beings, standard returns are not possible. However, we guarantee good health upon delivery: if the plant arrives damaged, it will be replaced free of charge. For any other cases (order error, decorative pot, accessory), returns are possible within 14 days.
