Monstera Subpinnata Care

Water when soil drys out about 3/4 of the way. Water gently and evenly at each application.

To help establish your new Subpinnata Monstera, fertilize sparingly at least 6 inches away from the base, tri-annually with a slow time release 15-5-10. Unfertilized they will tend to grow very slowly. Note: The heavy salts in cheaper fertilizers will damage the roots and possibly kill the plant.

This Monstera requires 70-85% sunlight. Depending on your location filtered sun is best. In the northern end of their grow zone Subpinnata plants should be brought indoors or protected during the winter months.

Subpinnata Monsteras enjoy well drained but moist, rich organic mix. Remember try to stay away from wet, mucky or dry, sandy soils.

Indoors plants thrive at temperatures between 55°- 80°F and in lower light conditions than other house plants.

Monstera grow very well in patio and indoor containers. Allow enough room for growth generally a 10″ to a 20″ diameter, 10″ deep container will suffice to get started. Remember the looser the roots, the taller and healthier your plant will be. When the plant becomes root bound its growth will slow, at that point it is time for a larger pot.
