The Mini Monstera (Rhaphidophora Tetrasperma) is an easy-care tropical, making it a perfect house plant with a stunning look.
They are a member of the Araceae family, (Monstera and Philodendron are as well), however, Mini Monstera is not actually a true Monstera. They do have similar leaves to their Monstera cousin but the leaves will stay much smaller in size with more defined slits in the leaves.
Plant Size
Small: 3.5 – 4 inch standard nursery pot.
Medium: 5 – 6 inch standard nursery pot.
Large: 7.5 inch standard nursery pot.
Light
They thrive in bright indirect light to see growth and splits in the leaves. Avoid intense direct sunlight and too dim of light.
Water
Water your plant when the top 2 inches of soil are dry to the touch. Add water until you see it drain from the bottom of the pot, and remove any excess water that runs out.
Plant Specific Care
Use a well-draining potting soil, mixed with some orchid bark if you want to support the drainage. Fertilize your plant a few times per month and maintain a humid environment either with a humidifier or storing the Mini Monstera close to the bathroom.
