Monstera deliciosa

The Monstera deliciosa is a staple plant in every indoor gardener’s collection. This easy to care for plant has broad leaves, that as it matures the new leaves unfurl as split leaves.

• LIGHT: Does well in low to bright indirect light. Avoid direct light, which will burn the leaves.

• WATER: Water monstera moderately and evenly, about once a week. Wait until the soil is fairly dry before watering again. Keep in a fairly humid environment. The plant is somewhat drought tolerant, so you don't need to worry about keeping up with the watering all time time. It's a survivor! 

• FERTILIZER: Fertilize monstera a few times in spring and summer to keep it happiest, especially if the leaves start to look light green or pale around the veins. You can fertilize it more regularly -- even weekly -- if you want more growth. Either way, use a houseplant fertilizer and adhere to the directions on the product packaging.
