Plant Bio

Monstera deliciosa Thai Constellation

A naturally occurring mutation of Monstera deliciosa that features fantastically variegated foliage, Thai Constellation has been called the “Queen of Houseplants.” As eye-catching as it is easy-to-grow if you have a warm, bright spot, no houseplant collection is complete without this beauty.

True to its South American roots, it prefers warm, humid conditions and lots of light (preferably within 3 feet of a large, unobstructed east- or west-facing window). It thrives in bright light (but tolerates medium and even lower light levels. To keep it growing its best, look for a location within about 3 feet from a good-sized east or west window. Water it as the half of the potting mix dries out before giving it its next drink of water. It’s surprisingly drought tolerant, but if it gets too dry for too long, you may see some browning on those gorgeous leaves. Take care not to overwater—it is susceptible to root rot if it stays too wet. Average room temperatures and humidity are perfectly fine for this low-maintenance houseplant (though above-average relative humidity will lead to a happier plant).
