Monstera Deliciosa
Lightning:
Monstera Deliciosa loves bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch its leaves.
Watering:
Water when the top inch of soil feels dry. Let the soil dry out a bit between waterings to prevent root rot.
Soil:
Use a well-draining potting mix. A mix designed for indoor plants with added perlite or orchid bark works well.
TEMPERATURE:
Keep your Monstera in temperatures between 65-85°F (18-29°C). Avoid cold drafts and sudden temperature changes.
Fun Fact:
Monstera Deliciosa is known for its large, split leaves, often called “Swiss Cheese Plant” because of their holes and slits!
Sad Plant Signs:
- Yellow Leaves: Could indicate overwatering.
- Brown Leaf Edges: Often a sign of low humidity or too much direct sunlight.
- Drooping Leaves: May mean the plant needs water or is getting too much water.
