I have noticed this field when the covid 19 spreaded around the world. The social isolation and the lack of nature made spirit of human go down a lot. Therefore, spending a small area to create the small greenery in our main house is a crucial part in building.

  • Scientific name: Monstera deliciosa
  • Origin: South America, Central America, Caribbean.
  • Character recognition: Monstera deliciosa has split-leaf with the heart-shaped form on its leaves. This is a climbing plant with the height of 5 metres in several years of growing.

Generally, Monstera deliciosa is known as the common plant used to decor in many indoor spaces and outdoor area of hotel, restaurant, accommodation and so on. This plant thrives strongly in the humid and warm weather, under the shade of the wooland or big trees. Therefore, the best conditions to grow and care it are: growing under the eaves or in the shade of trees where there is the light good enough for its growing, the idealized temperature is about 20 degree celcius in the well- draining soil with the average amount of fertilizers. If it is in contact with the light directly all day, the foliage will be destroyed, and cause the decrease of its lush growth.[Source]
To have more information about how to grow and take care of it in detail, you can take a look at via some websites.

I am growing this one at my balcony. Though the weather of Ho Chi Minh city does not fit for it, I have tried to put it under the shade and water 1 time per day. Hopefully it can get acquainted with the hot weather in my area.

If this plant is grown in the available condition such as higher humidity, indirect light, well-drained soil, 18-24 degree celcius temperature and so on, it can reach up to 60cm and develop the leaves with the propagation at the root.
