DESCRIPTION:

Monstera is a genus of tropical climbing plants native to the rainforests of Central and South America, where they grow under the canopy and climb trees in search of light. Known for their dramatic split or fenestrated leaves, Monstera are fast-growing and adaptable, making them a striking and easy-care choice for indoor collectors.

Monstera deliciosa aurea variegated (small form) aka borsigiana showcases dynamic variegation that shifts from light green to golden yellow to creamy white as the leaves mature. With its upright, space-saving growth habit, this fast-climbing variety is perfect for vertical displays. Compared to the large form, it grows faster, fenestrates earlier, and takes up significantly less room—ideal for collectors seeking color and structure in a compact plant.

OPTIMAL CONDITIONS

🌞 LIGHT: Thrives in bright, indirect light and performs exceptionally well under full-spectrum grow lights. High light helps maintain vibrant foliage and variegation. Ideal for south- or west-facing windows with filtered sun.

💦 HUMIDITY: Prefers humidity levels around 60–70%, similar to conditions in our nursery. Performs well in homes with a humidifier, grouped plants, or naturally higher humidity environments.

💧 WATER: Water when the soil is about halfway dry. Performs best in a chunky, well-aerated mix that balances moisture and drainage.

🐈 PET SAFE: No
