monstera delicosia aurea

Monstera deliciosa Aurea Marmorata needs good exposure to bright natural light, morning sun, or grow lights. Lack of solar energy will cause your Monstera Aurea to develop more green areas to ramp up its photosynthesis. And we don't want that! The lack of chlorophyll in the leaves also means that the leaves will be more photosensitive and prone to scorching. Be careful of too much direct sunlight.

The ideal humidity level for Monstera deliciosa Aurea Variegata is around 65%-70%. If your room doesn't have sufficient humidity, adding a moss pole, potting your variegated Monstera Aurea in a larger pot, and grouping it with other aroids will improve humidity around the plants.

Watering Your Variegated Monstera Aurea

Monsteras are extremely sensitive to water, particularly specimens with rich variegation. Ensure the water drains fully and isn’t retained by the soil, and that the plant isn’t sitting in water. It's recommended to keep the Monstera Marmorata Aurea on the drier side, letting the top of the soil dry before watering it again. 

Feeding Your Monstera Aurea

Fertilize Monstera Aurea Variegata in spring and summer. Make sure they don’t contain heavy salts like some cheaper fertilizers do. An N-P-K ratio of 5-2-3 is ideal for promoting the growth of healthy foliage and strong roots. In the wild, monstera plants get all the nutrients they need from the soil they’re rooted in, and even from the surfaces like barks from other trees they’re growing on.
