Monstera Thai Constellation

Monstera Thai Constellation - 15CM pot 

Monstera Thai Constellation is a beautiful and rare houseplant that is known for its unique variegation and large, perforated leaves. Here are some care tips to help you keep your Monstera Thai Constellation healthy and thriving:

1. Light: Monstera Thai Constellation prefers bright, indirect light. It can tolerate low light, but it may not grow as quickly or produce as many leaves. Avoid direct sunlight as it can scorch the leaves.

2. Water: Keep the soil evenly moist but not waterlogged. Water the plant thoroughly when the top inch of soil feels dry. Do not let the soil completely dry out between watering, but avoid overwatering as it can lead to root rot.

3. Humidity: Monstera Thai Constellation loves high humidity. You can increase humidity by misting the plant with water, placing a humidifier near the plant, or grouping it with other plants to create a mini greenhouse effect.

4. Temperature: Monstera Thai Constellation prefers temperatures between 60-75°F (15-24°C). Keep the plant away from cold drafts and windows.

5. Fertilizer: You can fertilize the plant once a month during the growing season (spring and summer) with a balanced liquid fertilizer. Do not fertilize during the dormant season (fall and winter).

6. Pruning: You can prune the plant to control its size and shape or to remove any damaged or yellowing leaves. This will also help promote new growth.

7. Repotting: Monstera Thai Constellation should be repotted every two to three years. Use a well-draining soil mix and a pot that is one size larger than the current pot.

8. Pests: Monstera Thai Constellation can be prone to spider mites, mealybugs, and scale insects. Inspect the plant regularly and treat any pests promptly with an appropriate insecticide.

9. Soil: Monstera Thai Constellation prefers a well-draining soil mix that is rich in organic matter. You can use a mixture of peat moss, perlite, and potting soil to create a soil mix that is well-draining and nutrient-rich.

10. Support: Monstera Thai Constellation can benefit from a moss pole or other support structure as it grows taller. Use a sturdy pole and tie the plant to it gently with soft twine.
