The Monstera Peru is a true standout with its thick, glossy, deep green leaves that have a unique, almost quilted texture. Unlike the classic Monstera deliciosa, this one stays compact and doesn’t develop fenestrations, making it perfect for smaller spaces while still bringing bold jungle vibes.
🌱 Care Tips for Monstera Peru 🌱
1. Light: Thrives in bright, indirect light. Can tolerate medium light but will grow more slowly.
2. Water: Water when the top inch of soil feels dry. Keep the soil lightly moist but never soggy.
3. Humidity: Loves higher humidity—occasional misting or a humidifier helps it thrive.
4. Feeding: Feed once a month during spring and summer with a balanced liquid fertilizer.
5. Support: Benefits from a moss pole or trellis to climb as it grows.
6. Repotting: Repot every 1–2 years or when it becomes root-bound.
