Until recently, Monstera obliqua was truly one of those rare plants, even in its natural habitat. It's been said that until 1977, it had only been observed in the wild 17 times. Until a couple of years ago, there was a famous hashtag on the internet, #itsneverobliqua, precisely because there were so few references that people often confused it with its sister plant, Monstera adansonii. However, thanks to in vitro culture laboratories, Monstera obliqua has become a relatively accessible plant for plant enthusiasts worldwide.

Remarkable due to its foliage (like most Monstera species), Monstera obliqua Peru seems to be a plant of extremes, as the fenestrations become larger and eventually make up 90% of the leaf as the plant matures. The plant's foliage develops a lace-like pattern due to these fenestrations.

Certainly, the leaves of Monstera obliqua are stunning, but they have specific needs:

  • Air humidity should be consistently high, ideally 85% or higher. This is why Monstera obliqua isn't suitable for growth in a living room but thrives in a terrarium or an Ikea cabinet upgraded with grow lights to create a terrarium-like environment.
  • Monstera obliqua is capable of producing stolons, leafless stems that naturally grow horizontally on the ground until they find another tree to climb (in the wild, they can reach lengths of up to 20 meters). Hence, the plant requires support; a moss pole is particularly suitable.
  • If not kept under appropriate conditions, it can easily attract pests, with common ones being whiteflies, mealybugs, red spider mites, and scale insects. If left untreated, the plant could die.

Attention! To check the substrate's moisture level, the best method is to insert a finger into the pot to a depth of 2 cm (about 0.8 inches). Unlike other Monstera species, Monstera obliqua prefers consistently moist substrate.

Attention 2! When discussing watering, consider the pot's size, the amount of substrate, and its aeration. Avoid pouring a liter of water into a pot with a diameter and height of 12 cm (4.7 inches) as it could drown the plant's roots. It's best to discard excess water from the saucer about half an hour after watering.

The plant should be mounted on a support pole covered in moss. This allows the aerial roots to attach to the support, resulting in a more robust stem and progressively larger leaves.

Good luck with caring for your plant! And don't forget to give us updates about your plant by using the hashtag #greenmirrors and tagging @green.mirrors in your Instagram posts! We promise to share them in our stories.

Gentle, Soothing, and Truly Calming
Size: 1.47 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Gentle, Soothing, and Truly Calming This is a wonderfully gentle bath treatment and one I’m very glad to have on hand. It dissolves easily in the bath and creates a soft, soothing soak that feels calming and comforting to the skin. It’s fragrance-free, which makes it especially nice for sensitive or easily irritated skin, and it leaves the skin feeling soft rather than dry or tight. The experience is quiet, simple, and effective — exactly what you want from a product designed to soothe. A great staple for anyone who values gentle care and a calming bath ritual. #LuxeLife #LuxeSelfCare #ConsciousLiving #MindfulLuxury #IntentionalLiving #SelfLovePractice #LiveWithGrace #BathRitual #GentleCare #AmazonFinds #AmazonFine

Amazing relief
Size: 1.47 Ounce (Pack of 1)
This is the best soak for my eczema skin. Yes, it does clump so I add the packet to a large measuring cup, add some water, and whisk vigorously until clumps are gone, then pour while whisking into the running bath water. Once I started doing this method there were no more clumps and I was able to get the benefits of the product. Definitely a soothing soak for anyone with a skin condition that causes itching.

Pre-Portioned Sachets That Calm Itch and Hydrate
Size: 1.47 Ounce (Pack of 1)
These individual sachets make it incredibly easy to prepare a soothing oatmeal bath when your skin is dealing with itching, dryness, or reactivity. I recently had an allergic reaction that left me with intensely itchy hives across my body, and I was willing to try anything that might help. I picked this up because it was reasonably priced, and it ended up being a great decision. The powder sprinkles smoothly into running bath water and begins to work quickly to calm the skin. Even though it is a powder, it forms only minimal clumps, and any that do appear are easy to break apart with your fingers. My skin felt noticeably more hydrated and far less irritated after soaking, and I was pleasantly surprised that it didn’t leave any residue behind in the tub. The pre-portioned sachets make the whole process simple and mess-free, which is especially helpful when you’re already uncomfortable. I’ll definitely be keeping these on hand for times when my skin needs extra TLC.
