Know before you buy
This plant thrives in bright, indirect light. Avoid placing it in direct sun, which can scorch its delicate, variegated foliage.
No, the Variegated Monstera Peru is not pet-safe. It is best kept in a location that is inaccessible to curious pets.
You can increase humidity by placing the plant on a pebble tray filled with water, grouping it with other houseplants, or using a small humidifier nearby.
Water when the top inch or two of soil feels dry to the touch. It prefers to be kept slightly moist, so be careful not to let the soil dry out completely or become waterlogged.
Variegation is naturally irregular and can vary from leaf to leaf. Providing consistent, bright indirect light helps encourage the plant to maintain its marbled pattern.
