Description
Monstera adansonii is the lighter cousin of Monstera deliciosa. Its smaller, finer leaves are pierced with oval holes from an early age, giving it a lacy look. It grows quickly and adapts to your home: on a pole it climbs; placed up high, it cascades down.

Where to place it
Near a bright window, or on a high shelf in a bright room. It loves humidity: a bright bathroom or kitchen suits it very well.
Caring for your Monstera adansonii
- Water when the top of the soil feels dry; it prefers slightly moist soil to soggy soil.
- Mist the foliage when the heating is on or in hot weather with a fine-mist spray bottle.
- To make it climb, tie the stems to a moss or coir pole; to make it trail, leave them free.
- Cut back stems that grow too long just above a node: it will branch out again.
The right potting mix
An airy, moist mix rich in organic matter: our Alocasia and tropical plant mix is made for it. Add coco chips if your home is very dry.
Mistakes to avoid
- Air that's too dry: leaf edges turn brown and curl.
- A corner that's too dark: stems stretch out with few leaves.
- Leaving water in the planter: roots rot quickly.
Frequently asked questions
Can I propagate it?
Yes, very easily: cut a stem below a node with an aerial root and put it in water. Roots appear within two to three weeks.
Every plant is chosen and checked at the studio before it leaves. Delivery anywhere in Morocco, or collection from our studio in Rabat. A plant that arrives damaged will be exchanged: let us know within 48 hours with a photo.
