How to Choose and Grow Monstera Plants

There’s no one right choice here. It mostly depends on where you plan to keep the plant and how much room you’ve got.

  • If you’ve got a bit more space, Monstera deliciosa is the one that really fills out over time
  • For shelves or smaller corners, Monstera adansonii works better and can trail nicely
  • Try to keep it somewhere bright but out of direct sunlight, as strong light can damage the leaves
  • A loose, well-draining potting mix works best, and it helps to let the soil dry slightly before watering again
  • If your home feels dry, a light mist now and then can help the plant settle better
  • As it grows, you can add a moss pole, so it has something to climb onto

Monstera Plant Care Tips for Healthy Growth

Monstera are pretty forgiving, which is why so many people go for them.

  • Instead of watering on a schedule, just check the soil and water when it feels dry on top
  • Too much water is usually where things go wrong, so it’s better to go easy than overdo it
  • Leaves can collect dust over time, so a quick wipe every now and then keeps them looking fresh
  • They tend to do better in warmer rooms where the temperature stays fairly steady
  • Direct sunlight can leave marks on the leaves, so it’s best to keep them slightly away from windows
  • If you notice aerial roots, you can leave them or guide them into the soil if you prefer

Frequently Asked Questions

Not really. Most Monstera plants, especially the standard Monstera deliciosa, are quite affordable. Prices usually only go up for variegated types, as they grow more slowly and are harder to find. For what you get, they’re actually good value.
They do grow year-round, but you’ll notice the difference. Growth is much quicker in spring and summer when there’s more light. During winter, things slow down a bit, which is completely normal for indoor plants.
They can for a while, especially if you’re growing a cutting. But long-term, they tend to do better in soil where they can get proper nutrients. Water alone usually isn’t enough to support full growth.
It depends on your home, but a good rule is to check the soil first. If the top layer feels dry, it’s time to water. In warmer months, you’ll likely water more often, while in winter, you can ease back a bit.
This usually comes down to light and maturity. Younger plants often have solid leaves, and the splits develop as the plant grows. If it’s not getting enough light, that can also slow things down.
They prefer a bit of humidity, but they’re not overly fussy. Most homes are fine. If the air is quite dry, especially in winter, occasional misting can help keep the leaves looking their best.
No, they’re not pet-safe. If the leaves are chewed or eaten, they can cause irritation. It’s best to keep them somewhere out of reach if you have pets or small children around.
