FAQs

How often should I water my Monstera?

Water when the top inch of soil is dry. This typically means watering every 1-2 weeks, but adjust based on your home environment.

What kind of light does the Monstera need?

Bright, indirect sunlight is ideal. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves.

Do I need to repot the plant?

Yes, as the plant grows, you'll need to repot it into a slightly larger pot. Usually, this is done every 1-2 years.

How do I increase humidity?

Misting the leaves regularly, using a humidifier, or placing the pot on a tray of pebbles with water can help increase humidity.

Is the Monstera Monkey Leaf safe for pets?

No, the Monstera Monkey Leaf is toxic to pets and children. Keep it out of reach.

When should I fertilize my Monstera?

Fertilize during the growing season (spring and summer) with a balanced liquid fertilizer, following the product instructions.

How do I clean the leaves?

Wipe the leaves gently with a damp cloth to remove dust and keep them gleaming.
