All about
The Monstera dossier
Monstera deliciosa
The Monstera deliciosa grows naturally in the tropical rainforests of Central and South America, where it climbs tree trunks with its aerial roots in search of light. The famous holes and splits in the leaves (called fenestration) let wind and light through to the lower foliage.
Large specimens keep that climbing character: a moss pole or support keeps the plant upright and encourages bigger leaves with more holes.

Placement and light
The Monstera prefers a bright spot without direct midday sun. Harsh direct sunlight scorches the leaves, while too little light produces small leaves without holes. A spot near an east or north facing window is ideal, or two to three metres from a south facing window.
Rotate the plant a quarter turn every few weeks so it grows evenly. Keep the temperature above 15 degrees and avoid draughts and a spot directly above a radiator.
Water and feeding
Water about once a week in spring and summer, and once every ten to fourteen days in autumn and winter. Feel first: the top three to five centimetres of soil should be dry before you water again. Slightly too dry is better than too wet, as root rot from overwatering is problem number one.
Feed with green plant fertiliser every two weeks from March to September. The Monstera appreciates somewhat higher humidity; misting is fine but usually not necessary.
Is something wrong with your Monstera?
Yellow leaves usually point to overwatering or poorly draining soil. Brown edges or tips indicate dry air or underwatering. New leaves without holes almost always mean too little light. In dry air spider mites can appear, recognisable by fine webbing on the underside of the leaves.
Repot a Monstera every two to three years, preferably in spring. Choose a pot with a diameter about twenty percent larger than the current nursery pot and use airy, well draining potting soil. Large specimens are top heavy: a sturdy, slightly taller decorative pot keeps the plant stable. You will find the matching pots right on this page.
Toxic to pets?
The Monstera contains calcium oxalate, which makes it mildly toxic to cats and dogs. Chewing on the leaves causes irritation of the mouth and stomach. Serious poisoning is rare, but with nibbling pets it is better to keep the plant out of reach or choose a pet friendly alternative.
With enough light the Monstera is a fast grower that can add dozens of centimetres per year. Each new leaf grows larger and develops more splits than the last. Our XXL specimens are already years old and give your interior an instant mature jungle look, without years of waiting.
This Monstera deliciosa 'Bulbarsaur' is 18 cm tall, measured including the nursery pot, and is in a pot of ø6 cm. It is a young plant that will continue to grow considerably with good care.
Will the Monstera Bulbarsaur also get holes in its leaves?
Yes, but only as the plant gets older. Young leaves are often still whole or lightly split. With sufficient light, the splits and holes will naturally appear in the new leaves.
Where should you place a Monstera Bulbarsaur?
In a bright spot without harsh midday sun, for example on a desk or shelf not too far from the window. In too little light, it grows slowly and the leaves remain small.
How often should you water a Monstera Bulbarsaur?
Water when the top layer of potting soil feels dry. In a pot of ø6 cm, this may already be after a few days in summer. Do not leave water in the pot or saucer.
When should you repot a small Monstera Bulbarsaur?
When roots grow out of the bottom of the pot or the soil dries out very quickly, it is time. Choose a pot a few centimetres larger and preferably repot in spring.
Is a Monstera Bulbarsaur toxic to cats and dogs?
Yes, the Monstera is toxic to cats and dogs. The leaves contain calcium oxalate, which irritates the mouth and stomach. Keep it out of reach if you have pets that chew on plants.
