Monstera standleyana, also known as Albo Variegata, is sometimes known as Philodendron Cobra. This plant is native to Nicaragua, Honduras, and Panama. If you have this stunning dark green plant at home, I will help you find a way to take care of this plant. Let's jump!

• Potting Mix

  Monstera standleyana is a plant that likes not too dry soil. It will grow best in a light, chunky potting mix that drains well but holds moisture at specific rates. You can mix equal parts peat moss, orchid bark, and perlite. Otherwise, you can buy a pre-made potting mix on a local farm which costs around $10 per 2 quarts.

• Water

  Regularly check the plant's soil moisture to prevent the plant from being too dry or overly watered. Water your albo monstera standleyana when the top two inches of soil have dried out. Never leave the soil in water for a long time; otherwise, your plant will have rot disease.

• Temperature and Humidity

  It is easy to set the temperature of this plant. Albo monstera standleyana can grow in temperatures ranging from 60 to 95 degrees Fahrenheit. Remember! Temperature under 50 or over 95 degrees Fahrenheit may cause plant stress.

  

• Fertilizer

  It's essential not to over-fertilize your Monstera standleyana because the heavy salts in the soil may cause your plant to dry out more and die. During the spring and summer, you can feed your Monstera once per month. You must fertilize the plant after watering it well to avoid burning roots.

• Propagation

  Please propagate a mature Monstera standleyana only in the spring or summer if you want to opt for the new variegated plant. You can propagate this plant in water or soil, but I typically use the water version as it is easier.

  

Conclusion

The Monstera standleyana care tips above are genuinely easy to follow. Monstera standleyana requires low maintenance if grown in the right conditions. I hope this step helps you take care of your plant!
