Monstera Peru

Light:
Prefers bright, indirect sunlight. Too much direct sun can burn the leaves, while low light may slow growth.

Watering:
Water when the top inch (2–3 cm) of soil feels dry. Avoid overwatering—well-draining soil and a pot with drainage holes are essential to prevent root rot.

Humidity:
Thrives in medium to high humidity. Will benefit from misting, pebble trays, or a humidifier, especially in dry environments.

Temperature:
Ideal temperature range is 65–85°F (18–29°C). Avoid cold drafts and temperatures below 55°F (13°C).

Soil:
Use a loose, well-draining potting mix—ideally a chunky aroid blend with perlite, orchid bark, and peat.

Fertilizer:
Feed monthly during the growing season (spring and summer) with a balanced liquid fertilizer. Reduce or pause feeding during fall and winter.

Support:
Although not essential, it can be trained to climb a moss pole or trellis to encourage larger leaves and vertical growth.

Toxicity:
Toxic if ingested by pets or humans. Keep out of reach of children and animals.
