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.

Quality of fabric may be less plush.
Size: 50"x60", Color: Tan
Very soft and plush blanket, although it not as thick and heavy as previously purchased in another color (same brand) it’s still a nice blanket.

Heartfelt Gesture of Appreciation
Size: Classic Cozy Collection, Color: "Thank You" Card
The Unboxme Thank You Gift Box proved to be the epitome of a thoughtful and appreciated gift. I recently chose this box as a thank you gift for my mother-in-law, and it was met with genuine delight and gratitude. The Warm + Cozy theme of the box was not just a label; it encapsulated the essence of the carefully curated items within. From the moment she opened the box, my mother-in-law was greeted with an array of cozy delights that radiated warmth and care. The inclusion of quality items, such as a plush blanket, scented candle, and gourmet treats, showcased the attention to detail in selecting items that truly contribute to a cozy and comforting experience. The blanket, in particular, was not just a token gesture but a genuinely luxurious addition that she immediately embraced. The packaging was not only aesthetically pleasing but also conveyed a sense of thoughtfulness and care in the presentation of the gift. The attention to detail in the arrangement of items and the quality of the box itself elevated the entire unboxing experience. What made this gift even more special was its versatility. The Warm + Cozy box is suitable for various recipients, including clients, coworkers, bosses, neighbors, and employees. Its universal appeal speaks to its well-rounded selection of items that can bring joy to a wide range of individuals. In conclusion, the Unboxme Thank You Gift Box for Women, Warm + Cozy edition, is more than just a collection of items; it's a gesture of genuine appreciation and care. My mother-in-law's positive reaction is a testament to the success of this thoughtful gift. Highly recommended for anyone looking to express gratitude with a touch of warmth and coziness.
