Fast-growing and easy to care for, it thrives in bright, indirect light and the occasional watering. Its vining habit makes it ideal for climbing poles, trellises, or trailing naturally!
Each plant is unique; size and shape fluctuate by season so all measurements are shown as a range

Monstera Peru Care Guide
Plant Origin: Peru
Sunlight requirements
Thrives in bright indirect to medium light.
Watering requirements
Water every 1-2 weeks, allowing soil to dry out between waterings. Expect to water more often in brighter light and less often in lower light. Monsteras can benefit from filtered water or leaving water out overnight before using.
Is this plant pet-friendly?
This plant may NOT be suitable for a home with pets.
Despite being a sought-after plant among collectors, it’s surprisingly low-maintenance—just give it bright, indirect light and don’t overwater!
