AroidHouse Monstera Adansonii

While it can trail from a hanging basket, providing a moss pole or trellis mimics its natural climbing habit. This support encourages larger leaf development and helps the plant maintain its iconic fenestrated structure.

Check the soil moisture by inserting your finger about two inches deep. If the soil feels dry to the touch, it is time to water; if it is still damp, wait a few more days to avoid root rot.

This plant performs best in bright, indirect light. Avoid placing it in direct sun, which can scorch the leaves, or in low-light corners, which may cause the plant to become leggy and lose its variegation.

No, this plant contains calcium oxalate crystals and is toxic to both pets and humans if ingested. It is best kept on a high shelf or in a room inaccessible to curious cats, dogs, or small children.

Gently unpack the plant and pot it in a well-draining, airy substrate mix containing perlite and bark. Water it lightly after potting and place it in a spot with bright, indirect light to help it recover from transit.

The Monstera Adansonii prefers a humidity level of around 60%. If your home is particularly dry, consider using a humidifier or placing the plant near a pebble tray to maintain the moisture levels it needs for healthy foliage.
