Details

The Monstera 'Dubia' is a rare and captivating variety of Monstera known for its unique climbing habit and heart-shaped leaves. In its juvenile form, the leaves are a soft green with intricate silver variegation, creating a mosaic-like appearance. As the plant matures and climbs, the leaves develop fenestrations, adding a dynamic and dramatic touch.

This tropical vine is perfect for attaching to a moss pole or flat surface, where it will climb and display its stunning foliage. Native to Central and South America, Monstera 'Dubia' thrives in warm, humid environments and makes a standout addition to any indoor plant collection.

  • Common Names: Shingle Plant, Dubia Monstera
  • Botanical Name: Monstera dubia
  • Size: Climbs up to 4-6 feet indoors with proper care.

Care Instructions

  • Light: Prefers bright, indirect light to maintain its vibrant variegation. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch its leaves.
  • Water: Allow the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings. Water thoroughly, ensuring proper drainage to prevent root rot.
  • Humidity: Thrives in high humidity. Use a pebble tray, mist regularly, or place near a humidifier to mimic its natural environment.
  • Feeding: Fertilize every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer) with a balanced liquid fertilizer. Reduce feeding during fall and winter.
  • Temperature: Maintain temperatures between 65°F and 85°F. Protect from cold drafts and temperatures below 60°F.
  • Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix rich in organic matter, such as one formulated for tropical plants or aroids.
