Monstera 'Lucida-stellata' care

Collectors know Monstera 'Lucida-stellata' for its steady pace; it keeps a compact rosette even in imperfect corners.

It does best in medium filtered light, though it tolerates brief departures without sulking. Water weekly in summer and fortnightly in winter; the fastest way to lose one is a saucer left full.

Keep it at a humid corner or grouped planting; pot it in a chunky aroid mix and refresh the top layer each spring. Propagation is straightforward from stem cuttings rooted in water.
