Monstera Deliciosa – Green Set Of 2
Plant description
Monstera deliciosa is a classic indoor foliage plant known for its strong, sculptural leaves and relaxed growth habit. This set includes 2 plants, each delivered in a Ø14 cm nursery pot with an approximate height of 45 cm. Young plants start with more solid, heart-shaped leaves and gradually develop the characteristic splits and openings as they mature—one of the reasons Monstera is valued as a long-term houseplant.
With its clear green colour and upright stems, Monstera works well in calm, Scandinavian interiors where you want greenery with structure rather than flowers. Place the two pots together for a fuller look, or separate them to create continuity through the home.
Plant care
- Light requirements: Bright, indirect light is ideal. Tolerates medium light, but growth will be slower and leaves may stay smaller. Avoid strong direct midday sun, which can scorch foliage.
- Watering routine: Water when the top 3–5 cm of soil feels dry. Water thoroughly, then let excess water drain away. Reduce watering in winter.
- Humidity preferences: Prefers moderate humidity. Normal indoor humidity is usually fine; slightly higher humidity supports larger leaves and cleaner edges.
- Temperature range: 18–26°C is best. Avoid cold drafts and temperatures below 15°C.
Growth and characteristics
- Plant species: Monstera deliciosa
- Approximate size at delivery: ↕45 cm, pot Ø14 cm

Placement in the home
Monstera is suited to living rooms, bedrooms, and home offices where it can receive steady daylight without harsh sun. A spot near an east- or north-facing window is often ideal; in brighter rooms, place it a little back from the glass. Use the pair to frame a sofa, soften open shelving, or add green volume to a hallway console or sideboard. As the plants grow, they can be guided with a support to keep the shape tidy.
Care tips
- Pot and drainage: Keep the plant in a pot with drainage holes. If placing in a decorative cachepot, empty any standing water after watering.
- Feeding: Feed monthly in spring and summer with a balanced houseplant fertiliser at a mild dose.
- Leaf care: Wipe leaves with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and help the plant photosynthesise efficiently.
- Repotting: Repot every 12–24 months, or when roots begin to circle the pot, using an airy mix (houseplant soil with added perlite/bark).
