INDOOR FAVOURITE
Monstera
Monstera deliciosa
Big leaves, a climbing habit and a little patience. Give a monstera room to grow and a stable support as it matures.
- Light
- Bright, indirect light
- Water
- Let the upper mix begin to dry
- Growth
- A climbing foliage plant
Place it in bright, indirect light and keep it away from cold draughts. Water according to the condition of the mix, allowing excess water to drain. Larger plants benefit from a suitable support; attach stems gently and check ties as growth continues. Young leaves may be whole rather than split, so leaf shape alone is not a verdict on your care. Keep this plant out of reach of children and pets that might chew it.
