Description
The Monstera adansonii as thrives in medium to bright, indirect light. This plant can be brought outdoors when temperatures are above 68 degrees, however, it must be keep out of direct sun as its leaves will burn. However, during the winter months filtered direct morning sun is fine. Make sure to turn your plant every 7-14 days in order to encourage even growth. If your plant stops producing splits in the leaves and stems become leggy, this means it is not getting enough light. If other conditions are acceptable, they can survive like this, however, you will want to move your plant to a brighter location if you want to see it produce more of those gorgeous split-leaves.
Water once the top two inches of soil is dry. This plant prefers a standard well draining potting soil that has been amended with peat.
Monstera adansonii prefers a warm, room-temperature setting between 68 and 86 degrees F. Medium to high humidity is ideal, however it is fairly tolerant to a wide range of conditions once acclimated. Do not let your Monsera drop below 50 degrees F as it will not do well. Frost will kill this tropical plant so make sure they are tucked in during winter months.

It came well packed. These don’t travel well, but mine looked better than others I’ve seen. Some humidity helped some leaves recover, the others I pinched. Pushing new growth within a week, healthy looking plant. I would ask the shop keeper the difference between my $28 dollar 4 inch pot and the adansonii 4 inch pot offered on her shop for much less. I was hopeful it meant I was getting a bigger plant. This came with 2 other plants, well packed and warm w heat pack. It was slower getting here than others ordered after, but timing watering dry out affects a good shipping day. The plants were as described. I will purchase more from this vendor.

Was packaged very safely and so far appears to have no pests! A few leaves were damaged but overall the plant is quite healthy.

Leaving all 5 stars because this seller gave me a full refund when they didn’t have to. My plants happened to ship during a unexpected winter store so they arrived completed dead. This was nothing on the sellers part. I will definitely be reordering as they sell some beautiful plants.
