☀️ Light

• Thrives in bright, indirect light for strong growth and deep green colour

• Can tolerate some gentle morning sun

• Avoid harsh midday rays, which can scorch the delicate leaves

💧 Water

• Keep soil lightly moist, letting the top 2–3 cm dry between waterings

• Use a chunky, airy mix (bark, perlite, coco coir) to protect the roots

• Avoid soggy soil — consistency is key

🌫️ Humidity

• Loves high humidity (60–80%) to keep those narrow leaves lush and glossy

• Mist occasionally or use a humidifier for best results

• Protect from cold drafts and dry air

🍽️ Feeding

• Feed every 4–6 weeks during spring and summer with a balanced, diluted fertilizer

• Pause feeding in autumn and winter

🌱 Quick Tips

• Provide a moss pole or climbing support — this Monstera loves to climb and will develop larger, more intricate leaves

• Wipe leaves gently to keep them clean and glossy

• Not pet-safe — keep away from cats and dogs
