Monstera Peru Plant

Foliage: Monstera Peru is celebrated for its distinctive, glossy, and textured leaves. The foliage is adorned with deep, irregular ridges and a marbled pattern of green shades, which can appear almost metallic in the right light

Native Habitat: Native to the tropical forests of Central and South America, where it thrives under the canopy of large trees, enjoying the dappled sunlight and high humidity of the understory

Growth Habit: As a tropical, evergreen, climbing plant, Monstera Peru uses aerial roots to ascend the trunks of trees, seeking light above the forest floor. Indoors, it can be encouraged to climb a moss pole or trellis, or allowed to trail from a hanging basket

Size: In indoor settings, Monstera Peru typically reaches a height of around 6-8 feet and 12-18 inches in spread. Its growth can be influenced by the pot size, pruning practices, and support provided for climbing

• Accepting tissue culture plantlet orders

• Pot：9cm-18cm

• The height of the plants and the flower pots can be made to your size

• Soil

As an epiphyte, Monstera Peru does best in rich, airy, well-draining soil. A mixture of one part coco coir, one part orchid bark, and one part perlite provides the perfect amount of drainage, moisture retention, and nutritional content

• Water

The thick leaves of Monstera Peru make this species more drought tolerant than many of its cousins, and it should be allowed to dry out completely between waterings. This plant should not be allowed to sit in wet soil for an extended period as it is susceptible to root rot

• Temperature and Humidity

Monstera Peru requires warm, humid temperatures to survive. Ideally, keep temperatures between 60 to 85 degrees and choose a naturally humid location. Alternatively, you can increase humidity around the plant by placing a pebble tray beneath the pot or putting a humidifier nearby

• Fertilizer

Monstera Peru appreciates regular fertilization with a mild, balanced fertilizer throughout the spring and summer months. Apply the fertilizer once every three to four weeks during watering, following product label instructions. Avoid fertilizing your Monstera Peru during the winter when the plant goes into dormancy

• Pruning

Monstera Peru can become leggy when left unpruned. Pruning will encourage new growth while controlling the plant's size. When pruning, use a disinfected cutting tool to cut leggy stems. When removing leggy vines, cut above a node (leave the node on the plant) because that's where new growth will appear

Keep away from pets and children
