The delicate foliage on this Monstera is striking - chiefly because the fenestrations characteristic of the genus take up so much of the leaf space. Each mid-green leaf is a delicate lacework of green between large fenestrations, natural holes which open in the leaves as the plant ages. One common issue with this delicate foliage is low humidity, which can lead to brown patches on the edges of the leaf - an area which, in this species, constitutes most of the leaf. These sought-after aroids are sure to catch the eye and draw admiration amongst any houseplant collection for their unusual appearance -take this one on for a challenge with its distinctive, showstopping foliage.

Scientific Name
Monstera obliqua 'Peru' (lopsided monster, cultivar: Peru)

Synonyms: Heteropsis obliqua, Monstera expilata, Monstera falcifolia, Monstera fendleri, Monstera killipii, Monstera microstachys, Monstera sagotiana, Monstera snethlagei, Monstera unilatera

This name was published in 1845, and though other names have been used, it has remained the accepted scientific name for this species.

Common Name
Monstera Obliqua, Monstera Peru, Swiss Cheese Vine, Window-Leaf

Origin
Native to tropical rainforests in South America, in Bolivia, North  Central Brazil, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, French Guiana, Guyana, Panama, Peru, Suriname, Trinidad-Tobago and Venezuela

Light
Prefers bright, indirect light. Too much direct sunlight can scorch its delicate leaves, while too little light may slow its already gradual growth. Artificial grow lights can be beneficial, especially in low-light environments.

Water
Keep the soil evenly moist but never soggy. Allow the top 1-2 cm of soil to dry slightly before watering. Use room-temperature, filtered, or rainwater to prevent leaf stress from chemicals in tap water.

Humidity
Requires extremely high humidity (80–90%). Best suited for terrariums, greenhouse cabinets, or enclosed spaces with controlled moisture levels. Without sufficient humidity, the leaves may crisp and fail to develop properly.

Soil
Needs a very airy, well-draining aroid mix. A combination of bark, perlite, and coir, or a mix designed for Monstera or Philodendrons, works best. Repot every few years as the plant grows; it is not a fast-grower, so make sure the roots have started to fill the pot before potting on.

Food
Feed every four waters in spring and summer; reduce to every six in autumn and winter when the plant will be growing more slowly.

Temperature
Prefers temperatures between 20-28°C. Keep it away from cold drafts and avoid  long periods at temperatures below 15°C.

Pet-safe
No, this plant is toxic if ingested, so keep it out of reach on curious fingers and claws.

Sprouts Top Tips
Due to its slow growth and delicate nature, Monstera obliqua ‘Peru’ thrives best in high-humidity setups such as terrariums or humidity-controlled grow cabinets. 

Extras
This plant is often confused with Monstera adansonii, the monkey mask, but M. obliqua has much thinner leaves, more extreme fenestrations, and a significantly slower growth rate. Mature plants can develop runners instead of climbing like other Monstera species.

great value!!
Color: White, Size: 6-Tier(10.7 x 14.5 x 65.3 Inches), Color: White, Size: 6-Tier(10.7 x 14.5 x 65.3 Inches)
Totally worth buying! The assembly is tinkertoy easy and they look nice! I bought four of the six tiers for my small home art studio.. one for books and three for all else. I didn't want big heavy shelves and these are light and stable! I put them with a couple other storage pieces I already had, painted a piece of 1x12 lumber white, to put across the top of them to make one long shelf and installed a couple of battery operated puck lights in them, and voila; a large, stable unit without the intimidating weight or price. If my little art studio were bigger I would buy more of them!

Looks great, gets the job done, definitely not high-end
Color: White, Size: 6-Tier(10.7 x 14.5 x 65.3 Inches)
I purchased not one, but *two* of these shelves for the purposes of storing my massive hoard of plush toys. For what I purchased them for, they get the job done swimmingly and they look great with the rest of my room. Assembly was simple, and although it was fairly easy to figure out, the provided instruction manual may not be easy for some to make sense of. There are also provided pieces for mounting the shelves to the wall for added sturdiness, and though they are included in the parts list, there are no provided instructions for them. One thing buyers should be aware of is the shelves and legs may arrive dirty with the dust and dirt from the factory. It's relatively easy to wipe them off with your hand, but it may not be a good first impression. As other buyers mentioned, a few of the pieces came with visual imperfections that, while easy to hide, may turn away those who are more particular about aesthetics. For the price however, the shelves are still well-made. Other buyers have mentioned concerns about the sturdiness and stability of the shelves. I cannot comment on the sturdiness as plush toys are not particularly heavy, however the shelves do exhibit a wobble (which is to be expected for this particular make of shelf; one without structural support in between the beams). That being said, though it wobbles, it doesn't feel as if it will fall apart easily. The pieces are all solid wood, as well. One negative is when I was putting on one of the feet for the second shelf, I'd twisted it tight (as I did with no issue for the other pieces), but for this particular piece it caused the glued in screw component to pop out. I had to use pliers to remove it from the shelf so I could use one of the spare legs instead. I did not face this issue with any other pieces, but it should be kept in mind that the application of glue across the pieces does not appear to be consistent. All in all, it is a good shelf and I am satisfied with my purchase. I did not expect a pristine or elegant shelf (nor did I intend to buy one), as this is a very fairly priced shelf. I got what I paid for.
