Monstera Obliqua Peru
Monstera Obliqua has bigger and wider leaves than Monstera adansonii. It is said that Monstera Obliqua has more holes than leaves! It is a small Monstera that packs a visual punch far beyond its size. It’s an expensive challenge only the most passionate plant parents attempt.
This Monstera is also very easy to care for, as long as it has moist and warm conditions. The plant has a vining habit and often grows entwined in and around itself, with new leaves and vines sometimes growing through the holes in existing leaves. This can lead to leaves tearing which gives the plant a shabby chic rather that pristine appeal.
Place the Monstera in a semi shady or light spot, in filtered sunlight. Make sure the potting soil is always mildly moist, but not wet. It’s best to water the plant regularly, and to give small amount of water each time, just enough to moisten the potting soil. We also recommend regularly misting the leaves to maintain a high humidity.
