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.

Excellent mineral sunscreen for sensitive skin.
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Set name: Tube - 3 oz.
I’ve been using the Blue Lizard Sensitive Mineral Sunscreen, and it’s become a staple in my routine. As someone with sensitive skin, I really appreciate that it’s fragrance-free and uses zinc oxide, providing great protection without causing any irritation or breakouts. It goes on smoothly, isn't overly greasy, and the water resistance holds up well for outdoor activities. The smart cap technology is a nice touch, too. Highly recommended if you’re looking for effective, non-irritating sun protection.

No chemicals that will be harmful!
Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 2), Set name: Tube - 5 oz. 2-Pack
Ordered this mineral sunscreen looking for something simple and effective, and it’s been a solid option so far. The zinc oxide formula is the main reason I went with it. It doesn’t rely on the same chemical ingredients found in a lot of other sunscreens, which is a big plus if you’re trying to avoid that. It feels like a cleaner option overall. Coverage is good. It spreads evenly and holds up well, even with some water exposure. I’ve used it outdoors for extended periods, and it does its job without needing constant reapplication. It does leave a slight white cast at first, which is pretty typical with mineral sunscreens, but it fades in as you rub it in. Not completely invisible, but manageable. After a few uses, what stood out most is that it doesn’t have a strong smell and doesn’t irritate the skin. It just works without a lot of extras. Compared to standard chemical sunscreens, this feels more straightforward and less harsh, especially for regular use. For the price, it’s a great value. You’re getting strong sun protection without the added ingredients some people try to avoid. If you’re looking for a mineral-based sunscreen that’s effective and a bit cleaner in formulation, this is a solid choice.

Great mineral sunscreen that actually works
Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Set name: Tube - 5 oz.
Blue Lizard Sensitive Mineral SPF 50 has become my daily go-to. It goes on smooth, doesn’t leave a weird white cast like some mineral sunscreens, and gives solid protection. I like that it’s 100% mineral with no harsh chemicals and has organic aloe vera in it, so my skin feels hydrated instead of dried out. No greasy feeling, no strong scent, and it holds up well even when I sweat a bit. Been using it for a few weeks now and it performs exactly how I want. Small bottle but a little goes a long way. Definitely recommend if you want a simple, effective mineral option.
