The Story
One of the defining plants of contemporary indoor design. Monsteras are native to the tropical forests of Central America, where they have evolved to grow on the forest floor and climb toward light - producing the distinctive fenestrations (holes and splits in the leaves) as they mature. Bright indirect light - fenestration develops best in good light. Water when the top half of soil is dry. Well-draining potting mix. Feed monthly in the growing season. All Monstera are toxic to pets and humans if ingested.
