Monstera obliqua 'Peru' is a rare and highly sought-after variety of the Monstera genus, native to the tropical regions of Peru. This plant is distinguished by its delicate, paper-thin leaves that are dramatically perforated with intricate holes, giving it a lace-like appearance. Unlike other Monstera varieties, the obliqua's leaves are fragile and almost skeletal, making it a true collector's gem for serious plant enthusiasts.

Key Characteristics:

  • Foliage: The leaves are characterized by their extensive fenestration, with large holes that make up a significant portion of the leaf area. This unique leaf structure adds to its exotic appearance.

  • Growth Habit: Monstera obliqua is a climbing epiphyte, naturally growing on trees in its native habitat. Indoors, it benefits from support structures like moss poles to mimic its natural climbing behavior.

Care Requirements:

  • Light: Thrives in bright, indirect light. Direct sunlight can scorch the leaves, so it's best to place the plant in a location with filtered light.

  • Soil: Requires well-draining, fertile soil. A mix designed for houseplants or one amended with perlite works well.

  • Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Allow the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings.

  • Temperature and Humidity: Prefers temperatures between 65°F (18°C) and 85°F (29°C) and high humidity. Regular misting or placing the pot on a humidity tray can help maintain adequate moisture levels.
