The Split Leaf Monstera (
Monstera deliciosa) is a popular, fast-growing tropical houseplant known for its large, glossy leaves that develop natural splits and holes (fenestrations) as they mature, typically around 2–3 years of age. Thriving in bright, indirect light and warm, humid conditions, they are easy to care for and can grow 6–8 feet tall indoors.
Key Care Guidelines
    • Light: Prefers bright, indirect sunlight for at least six hours a day; avoid direct sun, which can burn leaves.
    • Water: Keep soil slightly moist but not waterlogged. Water when the top 2 inches of soil are dry, increasing frequency during growing seasons and reducing it in winter.
    • Humidity:
      Thrives in high humidity, so regular misting or using a humidifier is beneficial.
  • Growth/Maintenance: As a climbing plant, it benefits from a moss pole for support. Leaves will split more with higher maturity, light, and humidity.
  • Common Pitfalls:
    • No Splits: If leaves are small and solid, the plant may be too young, need more light, or require nutrient-rich soil to mature.
    • Yellow Leaves: Usually a sign of overwatering or poor drainage.
    It is often called the Split Leaf Philodendron, though it is technically a different genus


    Philodendrons are excellent low-maintenance plants, which makes them a great choice for anyone and for all spaces. Here's what you need to know to keep your philodendrons thriving:

    • Light: Philodendrons prefer bright, indirect light, but they can also tolerate low light conditions. Just be careful not to expose them to direct sunlight, which can burn their leaves.

    • Water: These plants like to be watered when the top inch of their soil is dry, but be careful not to overwater them if they are kept in low light. Make sure the soil is draining well and that the pot has a drainage hole to prevent water from sitting in the bottom of the pot.
