Variegated Monstera Adansonii Lighting

A minimum of 8 to 10 hours of bright indirect light at a temperature of 65°F to 80°F should be provided for
the Monstera Adansonii Variegated. Avoid trying to keep the plant in direct sunlight, though, since it
bleaches the leaves and causes sunburn on the tips and margins.

Moreover, a lack of light combined with chilly drafts (28°F) causes leaves to lose their variegated patterns
and worsens the plant’s general state of health. In order to keep the plant warm, place your Adansonii
Variegated in an east or north-facing window and use frost blankets and heating pads. If there is no natural
light, you can install a grow lamp and keep the Monstera under it for at least 8 to 12 hours.

Variegated Monstera Adansonii Watering & Humidity

The variegated form of the easygoing tropical native Monstera Adansonii requires moist soil that is not
waterlogged and high humidity levels of 50 to 90%. So, watering your Adansonii Variegated with a light
misting twice a week in the summer and once every two weeks in the winter will satisfy its needs.

Overwatering, on the other hand, should be avoided because it stunts plant growth, promotes root rot, and
invites a host of illnesses. Dry, hard soil produced by underwatering obstructs the delivery of nutrients to
the roots. The blockage causes the leaves to curl, droop, and fade over time, while the roots become sick
and lifeless.

Hence, to balance the moisture content, either use the pebble tray technique or enhance the humidity with an
electric humidifier. The plant can be grouped as well to increase air moisture.

Variegated Monstera Adansonii Soil & Fertiliser

The pH range of 5.5 to 7.5 is neutral or slightly acidic, and these soil characteristics are ideal for the
Variegated Monstera Adansonii’s growth.

Rich nutrient soil promotes healthy growth while well-draining soil keeps the plant from being overwatered
and allows additional water to soak through the soil’s bottom.

Variegated Monstera Adansonii Potting and Repotting

Monstera Adansonii Variegated dislikes being in a small pot for a lengthy amount of time since their roots
need room to spread out. So, it may be necessary to repot the plant every two years in the early spring into
a pot that is 2 inches larger than the current one.

To determine whether a plant needs repotting, check for symptoms such as roots protruding from drainage
holes, yellow or brown leaves, hard soil, and bound roots.

Variegated Monstera Adansonii Toxicity

The Adansonii Variegated and the rest of the Monstera genus are all mildly harmful to people and animals,
according to the ASPCA. Skin irritation, including itching and rashes, is a common symptom that is sparked
by contact, and when consumed, it causes gastrointestinal distress. In the meantime, it may cause irritation
near your pet’s mouth or food pipe, swelling, burning, and breathing difficulties.
