Before you buy
- Ensure there is at least one healthy node present. A leaf without a node cannot produce new growth
- For variegated forms, verify variegation is present on the newest leaf and is not reverting to green
- Check for scale insects on petioles and undersides of leaves, as monsteras are susceptible
- Confirm the cutting or plant has been rooted before purchasing, unless you are buying intentionally unrooted (unrooted cuttings require a propagation setup to succeed)
About Monstera acacoyaguensis
Monstera acacoyaguensis is a climbing canopy aroid native to the tropical forests of southern Mexico and Central America. It climbs trees using aerial roots, developing large fenestrated leaves. Unlike Monstera deliciosa, the fenestrations are large, oval holes clustered along the midrib, leaving the margins mostly intact. The foliage is thick, coriaceous, and glossy green, giving it a sculptural form suited to vertical growing spaces.

Monstera acacoyaguensis care
- Substrate
- Chunky, well-draining mix: 40% potting compost, 30% perlite, 20% orchid bark, 10% worm castings. Monsteras are more tolerant of moisture than most aroids but still need drainage.
- Watering
- Water when the top 3–5 cm is dry. These are forgiving plants but still susceptible to root rot if kept too wet. Water less in winter.
- Humidity
- 50–70% preferred. More tolerant of typical UK indoor humidity than other aroids, though 60%+ encourages larger leaf development.
- Feeding
- Balanced fertiliser at half strength every 2 weeks from spring through summer. Monthly in winter or none at all.
- Repotting
- Every 12–18 months when roots emerge from drainage holes. Provide a moss pole or support, which encourages larger leaf production.
Common problems
No fenestrations (splits/holes)
Cause: Plant is juvenile, or insufficient light
Fix: Ensure bright indirect light and allow the plant to mature; fenestrations develop with age and better conditions
Yellow leaves
Cause: Overwatering or nutrient deficiency
Fix: Check soil moisture before watering; begin a regular fertilising routine in growing season
Brown patches on leaves
Cause: Sunburn or cold water on leaves
Fix: Avoid direct sun; water at the base and ensure water is room temperature
