The delicate foliage on this Monstera is striking - chiefly because the fenestrations characteristic of the genus take up so much of the leaf space. Each mid-green leaf is a delicate lacework of green between large fenestrations, natural holes which open in the leaves as the plant ages. One common issue with this delicate foliage is low humidity, which can lead to brown patches on the edges of the leaf - an area which, in this species, constitutes most of the leaf. These sought-after aroids are sure to catch the eye and draw admiration amongst any houseplant collection for their unusual appearance -take this one on for a challenge with its distinctive, showstopping foliage.

Scientific Name
Monstera obliqua 'Peru' (lopsided monster, cultivar: Peru)

Synonyms: Heteropsis obliqua, Monstera expilata, Monstera falcifolia, Monstera fendleri, Monstera killipii, Monstera microstachys, Monstera sagotiana, Monstera snethlagei, Monstera unilatera

This name was published in 1845, and though other names have been used, it has remained the accepted scientific name for this species.

Common Name
Monstera Obliqua, Monstera Peru, Swiss Cheese Vine, Window-Leaf

Origin
Native to tropical rainforests in South America, in Bolivia, North  Central Brazil, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, French Guiana, Guyana, Panama, Peru, Suriname, Trinidad-Tobago and Venezuela

Light
Prefers bright, indirect light. Too much direct sunlight can scorch its delicate leaves, while too little light may slow its already gradual growth. Artificial grow lights can be beneficial, especially in low-light environments.

Water
Keep the soil evenly moist but never soggy. Allow the top 1-2 cm of soil to dry slightly before watering. Use room-temperature, filtered, or rainwater to prevent leaf stress from chemicals in tap water.

Humidity
Requires extremely high humidity (80–90%). Best suited for terrariums, greenhouse cabinets, or enclosed spaces with controlled moisture levels. Without sufficient humidity, the leaves may crisp and fail to develop properly.

Soil
Needs a very airy, well-draining aroid mix. A combination of bark, perlite, and coir, or a mix designed for Monstera or Philodendrons, works best. Repot every few years as the plant grows; it is not a fast-grower, so make sure the roots have started to fill the pot before potting on.

Food
Feed every four waters in spring and summer; reduce to every six in autumn and winter when the plant will be growing more slowly.

Temperature
Prefers temperatures between 20-28°C. Keep it away from cold drafts and avoid  long periods at temperatures below 15°C.

Pet-safe
No, this plant is toxic if ingested, so keep it out of reach on curious fingers and claws.

Sprouts Top Tips
Due to its slow growth and delicate nature, Monstera obliqua ‘Peru’ thrives best in high-humidity setups such as terrariums or humidity-controlled grow cabinets. 

Extras
This plant is often confused with Monstera adansonii, the monkey mask, but M. obliqua has much thinner leaves, more extreme fenestrations, and a significantly slower growth rate. Mature plants can develop runners instead of climbing like other Monstera species.

Disappointment
Color: Stick
Disappointment, I have bought these for several of my labs as pups in the past, The center material used to be fleece with knots at ends and difficult To pull through the rubber chew . This toy now has like cotton and polyester strings through the toy tied into knots it easily to chews a part with the dogs, sticks in their teeth and makes a mess, Also easily pulls right through out of the rubber chew toy . After less than one day I ended up throwing away this knotted ball of string and I threaded some fleece strips through the toy and made large nots at the ends, it is now holding up quite well To a pretty aggressive puppy chewer. But I pretty much had to make my own toy

Good for adult & puppy.
We have a one year old English Mastiff female & a 3 month old English Mastiff male puppy. They both love this toy. I have to say Pet Stages won me over after my mother gave me a few of their toys. I'm not a fan of bright colors, but the dogs just these things. All the toys seem to be designed & tested to keep them interested. My dogs love trying to pull the ropes out, chewing the blue firm but soft enough tube and playing tug-o-war with it.

One of my puppies favorite toys!
Color: Stick
My very large puppy loves all of toys Petstages makes out of the Orka line. She is what I consider a heavy chewer and the (stick, frisbie, tire) are still in great shape after 5 months. The only issue with this stick, is that the rope pulls out of the stick way to easily. But even with that she continues to carry it around and chew on it.

Well-made and great size for the price!
Color: blue black
Very tough product, no odor of plastic, good toy for outside, perfect for medium or large dogs. Noise isn't too bad and the color is cute as well. Can't destroy this toy!

Durable Great for aggressive chewers
Color: Blue
Will make one whole room smell like fake bacon, but my dogs love it and it’s super strong and durable. I have a lab mixed with rotty and a full lab so it’s a perfect match.
