Monstera Lechleriana

The Monstera Lechleriana is another example of the true beauty Monstera can offer. Like many other Monstera it will reward you with fenestrations in the leaves as it matures. It loves to climb as a vining plant but will just as easily trail if that is what is wanted.

Care

This is a plant that deserves a little bit of your attention. We recommend fertilizing it every month in the growing season with a diluted houseplant fertilizer. The Monstera Lechleriana is native to the rainforest so it does enjoy higher levels of humidity. It will enjoy a good misting every so often. You can prune the Monstera back if it's getting out of control. It can be easily propagated by stem cuttings. You want to wipe those big beautiful leaves down monthly to keep them shiny and to help with photosynthesis.

Light

The Monstera Lechleriana can tolerate a wide range of light conditions. It thrives in bright indirect light. Lower lighting conditions result in slower and weaker growth. If not enough light is provided the Monstera Lechleriana may not develop the perforations in its leaves. Too much bright direct light will scorch the leaves.

Water

Water this plant when the top couple of inches are dry to the touch. It can handle drying out every so often. When watering this plant, water it thoroughly. Underwatering will result in yellowing leaves at first, then browning crispy leaves. Overwatering will lead to root rot and potentially kill the plant.
