About Monstera Deliciosia

Lighting and Temperature:  Warm temperatures and providing a lot of bright indirect light is recommended for Monstera's. South, East or West facing light preferred. I have mine about 10 feet away from my large south facing window. It's also important to make sure 

Watering Requirements: My rule of thumb when it comes to watering my Monstera is allowing the soil to completely dry between waterings. The potting mixture, the amount of light and size of the plant will impact when and how often to water your plant. 

Potting Mixture: Prefers a rich and high nutrient, but well draining potting mixture. I have my Monstera Thai Constellation in my regular go to potting mix. Equal parts of regular potting mix and cacti soil, and then I will add some perlite or pumice for extra drainage. 

Humidity: Because they are native to tropical rainforest they do prefer a humid environment, however normal room humidity will do, which is where I have my Thai Constellation Monstera 

Common Pest: Scales, mealybugs and thrips are some of the most common pest the Monstera attracts. It's important to practice pest management control by spraying down your plants with insecticidal soap.
