Monstera deliciosa

Monstera deliciosa is the classic green Monstera: a large tropical aroid with a climbing main stem, thick aerial roots and broad leaves that become larger and more divided as the plant matures. Juvenile leaves usually start smaller and less divided, while established growth can produce broad blades with deep splits and internal fenestrations.

Indoors, Monstera deliciosa grows as a liana with a lengthening stem, spreading petioles and aerial roots that help it attach as it gains height. A firm pole, plank or similar support keeps the vine guided before the upper growth becomes heavy.

How Monstera deliciosa leaves mature

  • Growth habit: A climbing aroid with a thickening stem and aerial roots from the nodes.
  • Leaf form: Mature leaves become glossy and broad, often with deep splits and internal holes.
  • Climbing support: Vertical support holds the vine upright and keeps heavier leaves from pulling the stem outward.
  • Indoor expectation: Flowers and fruit belong to the species biology but are rare indoors.

Monstera deliciosa habitat and indoor growth

Monstera deliciosa is native from parts of southern Mexico to Guatemala, where it grows in wet tropical forest. Thick roots need moisture, organic material and oxygen, so open aroid substrates with reliable drainage suit indoor plants better than dense compost.

The species belongs to Araceae and can produce a spadix with a surrounding spathe when mature. Fruit production is mainly relevant in suitable tropical outdoor climates; indoors, the plant usually stays in foliage growth, with leaf size, stem structure and climbing habit changing as it matures.

How to grow Monstera deliciosa indoors

  • Light: Place in bright filtered light; strong midday sun can scorch large exposed leaves.
  • Watering: Water thoroughly once the upper part of the potting mix has dried, then let the pot drain.
  • Root zone: Use a chunky mix with bark, fibre and mineral drainage so thick roots receive oxygen.
  • Temperature: Keep warm and away from cold draughts; this species is not frost tolerant.
  • Support: Add a pole or board early, before the main stem bends under mature growth.
  • Feeding: Feed moderately once broad new leaves are expanding, then reduce fertiliser if the mix stays cool or growth slows.
  • Repotting: Repot when thick roots press against the pot or lift the plant, keeping the main stem supported before and after the move.

Common Monstera deliciosa growth problems

  • Yellowing lower leaves: Check for wet substrate, poor drainage or roots sitting in water.
  • Dry brown edges: Review watering rhythm, root dryness, heat exposure and direct sun contact.
  • Small new leaves: Check maturity, root space, support, temperature and light.
  • Leaning stem: Tie the main vine to support, keeping ties away from petioles and new growth.

Monstera deliciosa toxicity and handling

Monstera deliciosa contains needle-like calcium oxalate crystals. Chewed leaves, stems or unripe plant parts can irritate the mouth and throat, and fresh sap may irritate skin.

Botanical name of Monstera deliciosa

Monstera deliciosa Liebm. was published in 1849 and belongs to Araceae. Monstera refers to the unusual mature leaf form, while deliciosa points to the edible ripe fruit produced by mature plants in suitable tropical conditions.

Given space and support, Monstera deliciosa develops from a compact young plant into a long-term climbing aroid with broad mature leaves.

Worked well near the equator
Style: SPF 50
I bought this product because I was going to be in the field for a month, outside, every day, all day, in Tanzania at high altitude. A severe sunburn would be hard to treat in the remote area we were in, but also I am very careful about protecting my skin from aging. I had to have mineral based sunscreen because as a whitewater kayaker I know it’s the only truly water resistant kind and it was going to be sweaty. And since I knew I was going to be putting it on every day, and we didn’t have running water in the field (bucket showers only) I didn’t want it to feel gross. (I really wanted to try the spray but I didn’t want to put anything pressurized in my luggage.) And I had already discovered the Coola face sunscreen (30spf version) which had impressed me with how silky smooth and not greasy it is. Now this IS greasier because it is a higher SPF. BUT I think this product is as good as you’re going to get with the protection you’re getting. Like I said, I’m a white water tiger, so I have used a LOT of mineral sunscreens. This was hands down the most comfortable one I’ve used. And it was effective. I didn’t burn once—only time I did burn was when I forgot to put it on one day toward the end of the trip, when we were out for just a couple hours—and I got the first 2nd degree burn I’ve ever had in my life. That was what this stuff had protected me from, all day every day, the entire trip. I did tan a little but I think that was mostly from the few times I was not covered during short bouts or it was cloudy. For my face I used the Coola 50spf face product.

Love this stuff!
Style: SPF 50
I use this every day and I love how it is frangrance free and creamy. I have a very fair complexion and I will say it leaves a slight white cast but it doesn’t bother me because it almost makes my fairness more creamy looking. My skin texture has improved since wearing it daily and no allergies from it. I highly recommend especially if you have fairer skin otherwise it may leave a cast .

Excellent mineral sunscreen with minimal white cast.
Style: SPF 50
This is one of the healthier sunscreens I’ve found so far. You’re not likely going to find a mineral sunscreen that doesn’t leave some white cast. However, this one rubs in pretty good with minimal cast. You can dab on and rub in fairly easily… as long as you don’t use too much the white cast should be minimal. I am not sure how well this would work on darker skin tones. My arms are a medium skin tone… my legs are more of a light-medium tone. I prefer mineral sunscreens, and this is the best one I found so far and compatible to Supergoop mineral play. If you liked that one, you would likely enjoy this Coola one too.

Would not recommend
Style: SPF 50
I literally never write reviews but felt compelled to write one for this sunscreen because I was very caught off guard by all the positive reviews. This sunscreen leaves the most insane white sheen that never soaks in and gets on EVERYTHING. I put this on and drove to the beach and had sunscreen on my car seat, the steering wheel, the center console, the door, EVERYWHERE! It took forever to clean up and was such a hassle and that was after having let the sunscreen soak into my skin for an hour. Also the sunscreen is really thick and difficult to spread and makes you look ghostly white. Plus, the sunscreen has a really odd odor that reminded me of play dough? That might not be a negative thing for everyone but I found it unpleasant. There are definitely better mineral sunscreens out there. For the price I expected a much better product.
