Monstera deliciosa (Swiss cheese plant)

can be described as today's hugely popular internet-famous green plant. It is native to Mexico and widely cultivated in tropical regions. Today, it is also loved by more and more people, and its figure is frequently seen in more and more home magazines. Its high ornamental value comes from its unique broad leaves, whose shape resembles the back shell of a turtle, which is why it is also named Monstera deliciosa (Swiss cheese plant). But some people will ask, "Why does my Monstera deliciosa not have the turtle-shell look?" Today we will look at the reasons why Monstera deliciosa does not develop fenestrations.

But in fact, when Monstera deliciosa has just sprouted, the leaf blade is whole, and only after it grows up does it split. However, sometimes the reason our planted Monstera deliciosa does not develop fenestrations (split) is what?

Reasons Monstera deliciosa does not develop fenestrations: The fenestration of Monstera deliciosa leaves is not only controlled by its own conditions; the environment also affects it. If a mature Monstera deliciosa still has not developed fenestrations, then it shows that problems occurred during our care process, and the plant did not get the nutrients it should have received.

When Monstera deliciosa is still a seedling, the development of the leaves and roots is still very weak, so throughout its seedling stage the entire leaf blade will be whole. But as the root system of Monstera deliciosa gradually develops soundly, after being planted for a period of time, the phenomenon of fenestration will appear. Even if a mature Monstera deliciosa has been pruned, the newly grown leaves also have obvious holes. From this it can be seen that after the root system is sound, the normal state of Monstera deliciosa is already fenestrated.

Care points for fenestration in Monstera deliciosa

Light

In summer and autumn, when the sun is blazing, avoid direct sunlight on Monstera deliciosa. Place it in a cool, ventilated place with soft light, so that it will not fail to develop fenestrations normally because of insufficient light or overly strong light.

Water

Monstera deliciosa has relatively high water requirements during the growing period, so usually let the potting soil contain some moisture, and also sprinkle some water on the leaves, or spray water on the ground to raise humidity, while also lowering the temperature, so that the plant grows even better.

Fertilizing

The growth of Monstera deliciosa requires a certain amount of fertilizer. Applying nitrogen fertilizer to Monstera deliciosa once every one or two weeks helps leaf development.
