Monstera Deliciosa Swiss Cheese Plant 24cm
The Monstera Deliciosa, often called the Swiss Cheese Plant, hails from Central and South America. Below are some tips for taking care of this fascinating tropical plant:
✔ Light: The Monstera Deliciosa flourishes in bright, indirect sunlight. Direct sun can scorch its leaves; insufficient light will cause it to become leggy.
✔ Water: Allow the top 1-2 inches of soil to dry before watering again. It prefers slightly moist soil but overwatering may lead to root rot. Reduce watering during the winter months.
✔ Humidity: This plant enjoys high humidity levels. Enhance humidity around it by placing a tray of water nearby, using a humidifier, or grouping it with other plants.
✔ Temperature: Suitable temperature range is between 65-85°F (18-29°C). Keep it away from cold drafts and air conditioning units.
✔ Soil: Well-draining soil enriched with organic matter is ideal for Monstera Deliciosa.
✔ Fertilizer: Use a balanced fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer). Avoid fertilizing during winter.
Variable Heights: The height of our plants can vary by approximately +/- 10%. This natural fluctuation ensures you receive a unique and healthy specimen. Images are for a representation only.
✔ Pruning: Trim your Monstera regularly to maintain its shape and encourage fuller growth. Remove yellowing or damaged leaves or branches promptly.
✔ Support: Supporting structures like moss poles or trellises help the plant's natural climbing tendency.
✔ Propagation: Stem cuttings or air layering are effective methods for propagation. Use cuttings with nodes placed in water or moist soil until roots develop. For air layering, create an incision in the stem, fill it with sphagnum moss, cover with plastic wrap, and wait for roots to form before detaching from the mother plant.
By adhering to these care tips, you can ensure your Monstera Deliciosa prospers, providing lush greenery indoors.
