Monstera obliqua ‘Leichtlinii’
Monstera obliqua ‘Leichtlinii’ is a delicate and dramatic aroid that brings serious jungle vibes with a side of sophistication. It's often mistaken for its chunkier cousin Monstera adansonii.
✨ Why we love it:
– Ultra fenestrated (holey) leaves with incredible texture
– One of the rarer Monstera varieties
– Perfect for collectors and tropical setups
– Lightweight foliage gives a dreamy, floating effect
– A must have for any rare plant shelf
💡 Light: Loves bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sun to protect its delicate leaves.
💧 Water: Keep the soil lightly moist but never soggy. Prefers consistency over soaking.
🌱 Humidity: Thrives in high humidity, aim for 60% or more.
🌡️ Temperature: Keep warm, ideally above 18°C. Avoid cold drafts and sudden temperature changes.
🚫 Toxicity: Toxic to pets and humans if ingested, best kept out of reach.
🌿 Top Tip: Provide a fine moss pole or textured surface to climb, the Obliqua loves to cling and will reward you with stronger growth and bigger leaves.
