I love my Monty and give all my indoor plants a little drink on Sundays and because it's quite hot at the moment in Australia, I mist them in between I spray a little powered onto the soil around the plant once every couple of months They live in our sunroom and very happy. Today however we have had to report pot Monty into a lighter pot as the one he was in was too Heavy to lift, we are redoing the floor and had to clear the room. We have given him a good feed of seasol to avoid root shoch as a little piece of root fell off in the process, so wish me luck as head had to go outside for a week in the shade of his own umbrella.

I would love to know what the best moss is to use on top of the soil in the pot for a Monstera, if you could offer any advice 🙂

In reply to Kristin. My wife left out our big Monstera outside and it froze and the leaves all wilted and died. I'm pretty upset about it, we've had it for 15 years. If I cut away the all the dead leaves and keep it indoors during the winter time will it regrow new leaves? Help!

Hi Emma, I’ve just been given a Monstera that has been living outside in shade, but after reading your post I think I’ll be putting it in my sunroom. It will need repotting into a much larger pot. It seems to have one v. large trunk growing sideways and a smaller one beside it growing straight up. I’m wondering when I take it out of its current pot could I separate the two? They must share the same root system? I wish I could send a pic. Judy

My wife has a monstera deliciosa and the leaves are yellowing, it is under the pergola and gets shaded sunlight in the mornings, the roots are growing out of the pot and all over the place, should look d we trim the roots?

I left two Monsteras out on my covered, sheltered deck one night when it got unexpectedly cold. Bummer. I trimmed off the brown edges of damaged leaves but they eventually died. However I kept watering the leafless “trunks” of these plants and miraculously several months later sprouted nubs of new leaves! Never give up.

I got my husband a monsteria for his new office and SHE loves and thrives in direct sunlight-I know because I brought her home for a bit and in indirect sun, she lost her happiness. She NEEDED staking—two stake’s because we didn’t stake soon enough. Her aerial roots went nuts recently so I cut them and did cuttings of some wild shoots. They are now in water waiting for roots.

I just received a Monstera as a gift and were curious about the water drops on the leaves. That's why I google to find out the reason and where the drops comes from and came across this article. I really learned alot about this plant, through this article, but have not find the answer to the main reason for the search yet. I just LOVE my plants. The best present anyone can give me
