broken heart plant—is Monstera adansonii, a beautiful trailing/climbing indoor plant with naturally holey leaves.
🌿 1. Light (Very Important)
- Prefers bright, indirect light
- Avoid harsh direct sun (can burn leaves)
- Too little light → fewer holes + leggy growth
👉 Best spot: near an east or north-facing window
💧 2. Watering
- Water when top 1–2 inches of soil is dry
- Don’t let it sit in water (root rot risk)
- In humid places (like West Bengal), water less frequently
👉 Tip: Slightly underwatering is better than overwatering
🌱 3. Soil & Pot
- Use well-draining soil mix, like:
- Potting soil + coco peat + perlite/sand
- Pot must have drainage holes
👉 Terracotta pots work great because they breathe
🌡️ 4. Temperature & Humidity
- Loves warm + humid conditions
- Ideal temp: 18–30°C
- Humidity helps leaves grow bigger & healthier
👉 You can:
- Mist occasionally
- Keep near other plants
- Or use a humidity tray
🌿 5. Support (Climber!)
- This plant naturally climbs
- Give it:
- Moss pole OR
- Stick support
👉 Climbing = bigger, more “holey” leaves
✂️ 6. Pruning & Shape
- Trim long, leggy vines to make it bushier
- You can propagate cuttings easily:
- Cut below a node
- Place in water or soil
