About the Monstera Deliciosa 'Delicious Monster' Philodendron

[DESCRIPTION]

Now one of the most sought after houseplants of today, the philodendron monstera split leaf’s ever growing popularity makes no plant collection complete without it. Any monstera lover will surely tell you that one of life’s little joys involves waiting patiently for a new leaf to unfurl and reveal any potential splits! 

[BREAK]

Light: Moderate to low indirect light

[BREAK]

Water: Allow the top inch of soil to dry out before watering.  After watering, make sure the plant drains fully. Do not allow the plant to sit in water for more than an hour as this will cause root rot.

[BREAK]

Monsteras also benefit from the occasional misting.

[BREAK]

Your Monstera's large leaves will accumulate dust overtime, which interferes with the flow of carbon dixoide into the plant and the resulting outflow of oxygen into the room. Clean the leaves by placing one hand under the leaf and with your other hand gently wipe the surface using a damp microfiber cloth. Keeping your plant regularly free of dust as part of your plant care routine is not only great for the plant, but also for you!
