BWH Plant Co Monstera

It is completely normal for young specimens to lack fenestrations. These signature splits and holes develop naturally as the plant matures and receives adequate light and support.

Because this is a climbing variety, it will eventually need a moss pole or a sturdy trellis to grow upward. Providing support helps the plant reach its full potential and encourages larger, more mature leaf growth.

Variegation requires consistent bright, indirect light to thrive. If the plant is kept in a spot that is too dark, it may lose some of its unique coloring or revert to solid green.

No, the Monstera 'Mint' is not pet-friendly. It contains calcium oxalate crystals, which can cause irritation if ingested by pets, so it is best kept in a location out of reach.

Check the soil moisture regularly and water only when the top 1 to 2 inches of soil feel dry to the touch. It is better to err on the side of underwatering than overwatering, as soggy soil can lead to root rot.

This plant prefers humidity levels above 50%. You can achieve this by placing it near a humidifier, grouping it with other plants, or keeping it in a naturally humid room like a bathroom with a window.
