The Monstera Minima is an easy-to-care-for plant, making it an ideal choice for plant beginners or those with a busy lifestyle.
-
Light: Thrives in bright, indirect light. It can tolerate some lower light but may grow slower or produce fewer leaf splits.
-
Water: Water when the top inch of soil feels dry. Be careful not to overwater—ensure your pot has good drainage to prevent root rot.
-
Humidity: Prefers moderate to high humidity but is more tolerant than many tropical plants.
-
Temperature: Loves warm conditions between 18–29°C.
-
Soil: Use a well-aerated potting mix—something chunky with perlite, orchid bark, or coco coir is ideal.
-
Feeding: Feed monthly during spring and summer with a balanced liquid houseplant fertilizer, diluted to half strength.
-
Support: Provide a moss pole or trellis to encourage vertical growth and larger, more mature-looking leaves.
