-
Light: Bright, indirect light. Direct sunlight can scorch the variegated foliage. East or north-facing windows work well.
-
Temperature: Warm temperatures between 18-26°C (65-79°F). Protect from cold drafts and temperature fluctuations.
-
Humidity: High humidity levels of 60-80%. Use a humidifier, pebble tray, or group with other plants.
-
Watering: Water when top 2-3 inches of soil feel dry. Maintain consistent moisture without waterlogging.
Additional Notes:
Benefits from a moss pole or support structure to encourage climbing and larger leaf development. Regular feeding during growing season enhances variegation intensity.
The designation 'cf' indicates that this plant closely resembles Monstera aureopinnata but may have slight variations or the identification requires further confirmation.
