Monstera siltepecana

Monstera siltepecana is a climbing Monstera with juvenile leaves that show a cool silver-green surface and darker green venation. Young plants are usually kept in this patterned juvenile stage, while mature climbing stems can become larger, greener, and more fenestrated.

This change is part of the species’ growth pattern. A trailing or unsupported plant often keeps smaller juvenile leaves, while an attached vertical vine can produce larger, greener adult leaves over time.

Silver juvenile leaves on Monstera siltepecana

  • Juvenile foliage: Silver-green blades show darker green veins and a smooth surface.
  • Growth habit: The plant climbs as a tropical aroid with aerial roots.
  • Mature stage: Larger supported leaves can become greener and develop perforations.
  • Vertical growth: A pole, plank, or frame allows attached stems to form larger, greener leaves over time.

From silver foliage to mature climbing leaves

Monstera siltepecana is an accepted species native from eastern Central and southern Mexico to Nicaragua. It grows as a climber in wet tropical forest, where stems attach to shaded vertical surfaces and leaves change on higher, attached sections.

Indoors, the juvenile stage shows the silver pattern most clearly. A plant grown upward may gradually show a different mature appearance, with larger leaves and reduced silvering. That shift reflects development, not a loss caused by ordinary indoor care.

Care for Monstera siltepecana leaf stages

  • Support: Add a pole or plank if larger mature leaves are preferred over a trailing juvenile vine.
  • Light: Bright filtered light keeps internodes shorter and the juvenile pattern clearer.
  • Watering: Water after the upper part of the substrate has dried, then empty excess water from the cachepot or saucer.
  • Substrate: Use a loose aroid mix with bark, coco material, and mineral drainage.
  • Pruning: Cut above a node to shorten long stems or encourage a fuller plant.
  • Temperature: Keep warm at 18–27 °C and protect the roots from cold, wet conditions.
  • Humidity: Average indoor humidity is usually tolerated, with smoother leaf expansion in more humid air.
  • Feeding: Feed after silver juvenile vines start extending or after pruning has produced new nodes; reduce doses on cool, slow growth.
  • Repotting: Move into fresh airy mix when roots have filled the pot, keeping attached stems clipped so the juvenile leaves stay flat.

Long stems, yellow leaves and colour changes

  • Long thin stems: Increase filtered light and guide the vine onto a support.
  • Changing leaf colour: Check whether the plant is maturing on support before treating the change as a care problem.
  • Yellow lower leaves: Check watering frequency, root condition, and whether the substrate has compacted.
  • Brown tips: Review moisture consistency and root health before raising humidity.

Safety for a climbing Monstera

Monstera siltepecana contains irritating calcium oxalate crystals. Keep leaves and cut stems away from pets and children that may chew them.

Siltepecana name background

Monstera siltepecana was published by Matuda in 1950 and belongs to Araceae. The species name refers to Siltepec in Chiapas, Mexico.

An attached Monstera siltepecana vine can shift from silver juvenile leaves toward greener, fenestrated adult foliage over time.

Lashes like Garbo
Size: 0.27 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Mascara/Lash Primer, Size: 0.27 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Mascara/Lash Primer
I think this might be my new go to mascara. I have the teeniest tiniest lashes ever, they are straight and stick out from my eyelids and without mascara I look like I have no lashes so it’s a struggle finding mascaras that make my lashes look lush. Let me start off by saying that the primer is amazing. As soon as I put it on my lashes grew over twice in length! It didn’t clump and separated my lashes like whoa( the clumping with these lash fiber or extra lengthening mascaras is always horrendous so that was a wonderful surprise), it dried in about 20 seconds and then I put on the coal black mascara. Vavoom ladies! Instant fabulous lashes. So far I have experienced zero flaking after wearing for long periods of time , it hasn’t smudged or melted when I’m dancing up a storm or getting my workout on and the length of my lashes is practically miraculous. It is not cry proof. It’s super easy to remove and doesn’t tear out any of my eyelashes though, so that’s another plus! Also, I have celiac disease and a host of other random allergies and am allergic to SO MANY products it’s ridiculous, but luckily I am not allergic to this magic mascara. I recently discovered that this doesn’t smudge on my bottom lashes either! I’m almost 40 and I have never found a mascara that didn’t smudge on my bottom lashes. I’m so oily that even waterproof ones didn’t work! I stopped wearing it on my bottom lashes for anything but photo shoots after 20yrs old because the smudging made me look like an old lady with terrible makeup skills,but now I can once again rock liner on my bottom lashes! I included a terrible picture ( I hate getting my picture taken!) and tried to crop it so you can get an idea of how amazing this mascara is( look at those lashes practically touching my brow bone!),because I know I always want to actually see the results of people using the product, so hopefully it helps. :-) Ps: I don’t have mascara on my bottom lashes in the pic as I didn’t discover it was even a possibility for me until I bought a tube for my bestie ( another oily faced queen)and she told me there was no smudging:-O

Mascara is good, but don’t expect the best - smudges & flakes sometimes
Size: 0.27 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Mascara/Lash Primer
This mascara is very good for lengthening when you use the primer. I’m not sure I’ve noticed a volume/thickness increase, but have noticed lash length does look longer. I usually give it about 30 seconds for the primer to dry before using the mascara, otherwise it does clump a bit. I would also recommend wiggling both wands along your lashes during application to avoid clumps. In general I do like this, but noticed a few other important points: it will definitely run a lot if you get it wet (e.g. rain or crying), it will flake or smudge a little by the end of the day - especially if you rub your eyes, and while it does not make my eyes itch, I found it best to put in my contacts AFTER the mascara is fully dry. I’ve accidentally got some mascara a few times in my eye with the wand/trying to smooth out clumps and it totally made my contacts (daily wear type) useless after that. That all probably sounds like the mascara isn’t worth it, however I still actually like this mascara. I’d say it’s perfect for an average day’s wear, just not an extended day or in some cases. It does come off fully for me.

My Go-To Mascara for Years — Makes My Lashes Look Fuller and Longer!
Size: 0.27 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Mascara/Lash Primer
I’ve been using this mascara brand for a few years now, and it’s never let me down. This particular two-in-one (primer + mascara) combo works so well — it gives my lashes a great boost and really helps them look fuller and longer over time with consistent use. Every time I wear it, I genuinely feel more confident and put-together — it just makes me look prettier, and that’s always a plus! The primer adds volume and helps the mascara go on smoothly without clumps. It lasts well throughout the day, too. If you’re looking for a reliable mascara that delivers results and enhances your natural lashes, I definitely recommend this one!

okay so far
Size: 0.27 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Mascara/Lash Primer
bought this because i have recently developed a sensitivity to heavy makeup around the eyes. loved the ingredients of this mascara and rates a 3 on the think dirty app (amazing app check it out!) that being said, i honestly didn’t expect any crazy results like i would with my prior mascaras (l’oréal lash paradise and maybelline lash sensational) and i was right, it took forever for me to apply a decent amount to my lashes. both sides seemed kind of dried out too, not the thick consistency that people were talking about in the reviews. the primer was dry and sort of settled in clumps around my lashes and i did the best i could to comb them out but i ended out plucking out the clumps with my finger tips. the mascara itself was very thin but no clumping, just felt dried out like i said. my lashes fell straight in a matter of half an hour. it also flaked throughout the day and i spent it entirely indoors. i rubbed my eye once or twice and my inner corner felt a little irritated but im not sure it’s because of the product itself. the packaging itself is a little bulky when applying but i guess it’s a matter of working with it. i think it’s a little pricey for what it is but i think i can work with it, given that i don’t want harsh chemicals around my eyes. i will continue to be on the hunt for a “clean” mascara that works better though
