Monstera punctulata (Monstera deliciosa) is a tropical rainforest plant native to southern Mexico and south Panama. It has been introduced to many tropical places, becoming a somewhat invasive species in Hawaii and Seychelles. The particular epithet comes from the Latin pungens, which means “pointed.”
This well-established plant comes in a 4.5″ nursery container with drainage. Monstera punctulata (also known as the fiddle leaf fig or Swiss cheese plant) is an attractive evergreen native to Central and South American tropical forests, making it ideal for a warm, humid environment inside your home.
Monstera plants are low-maintenance and easy to care for, and they can make a dramatic accent to any room. Prefers direct sunlight to partial shade. Depending on the conditions, water once every 7-10 days. Before watering again, make sure the soil has dried out. Fertilize your houseplants on a regular basis with a specific houseplant fertilizer, about once every 6 weeks during the warmer months when the plant is actively growing.
Monstera punctulata, sometimes known as Monstera, is a plant in the Araceae family. It’s called Monstera punctulata variegata and has a different appearance from other Monstera kinds.
It has white variegations on its leaves (this variety has some green on the leaves too). The white color is caused by a lack of chlorophyll in particular places, making for an eye-catching variant of this popular houseplant.
Monstera punctulata is an evergreen shrub with dark green foliage. Its enormous, oval-shaped leaves are densely overlapping and reach a width of 3 feet. Although it grows quickly in optimal conditions, it is also incredibly adaptable, making it simple to care for in homes or businesses. This lovely plant can grow up to 10 feet tall and would look lovely in any indoor space.
Essential Tools for Monstera Punctulata Plant Care
Houseplant potting soil

Water probe or moisture meter
Protective gardening gloves
Pruning shears
Watering can
Spray bottle
Drip tray
Well-draining container
All-purpose, balanced houseplant fertilizer
The Monstera Punctulata is virtually an indoor tree; the plant may grow up to 20 feet in a pot, but its practical interior height is seven to nine feet. The Monstera Punctulata thrives in humidity and indirect sunshine, so if you have a south-facing window, you should be fine.
Keep the soil slightly damp when watering, as overwatering is one of the reasons why this plant dies quickly. It’s also simple to maintain; simply removing leaves from dead plants or applying leaf shine or wood polish restores its luster.
Monstera is one of the simplest tropical plants to cultivate indoors. It features a bamboo-like brown stem and tall, glossy leaves. A Monstera can sprout two leaves at a time and can grow to be 4′ long. The plant enjoys bright indirect light and will grow under fluorescent lights, but it can also be placed near a south-facing window that receives indirect sunlight for approximately 10 hours each day.
Too much spraying or misting of the leaves can cause the surface to develop black spots, which can grow if left untreated. Allow the soil to dry out between waterings when growing Monstera, but do not let it go fully dry.

Not too late for #MonsteraMonday, is it? I spent the day gleaning through The @cornelluniversity herbarium, which houses 900,000 plant specimens, including this Monstera punctulata specimen from Mexico. (at Cornell University)
