Care and Feeding
If possible, avoid setting up your Monstera Deliciosa house plant in direct sunlight, as doing so can cause burn damage. The plant grows most effectively in filtered or indirect light and at a temperature of approximately 25 degrees Celsius. As a rainforest plant, it also prefers humid environments.
Monstera Deliciosa is best planted in well-draining soil mixed with extra peat moss. Keep the plant’s soil moist but not damp enough to feel soggy. A good rule of thumb is to water the soil when the top third of the soil feels dried out.
Make sure the leaves keep their appealing looks by washing the leaves directly with a detergent/water solution. Regularly mist the leaves with a spray bottle of water to help the plant retain its vibrant color.
