Yangxiandong Monstera needs to provide a warm environment. Since it is not very cold resistant, care must be taken to keep it warm in winter. Usually put it in a semi-shady place to avoid direct light. It likes a humid climate, so water it more frequently, but not too much. Fertilize it, usually once a month during the growing season, and use mostly nitrogen fertilizer. Repot every 1-2 years.

1. Temperature

1. Temperature

Xiandong Monstera is suitable for growing in warm places, and prefers high temperatures. It usually grows better in an environment of 20-30℃, but its cold resistance is very weak in winter. The minimum temperature cannot be lower than 10℃, otherwise you will easily get frostbite.

2. Light

< p>Xiandong Monstera is very tolerant of shade, and is still afraid of exposure to the sun. If direct light lasts for 1-2 hours, the leaves will be burned. Usually in summer, it is necessary to do a good job of shading and place it in a semi-shady place to receive scattered light. In this way, the leaves of the plant will be very green and shiny. If it does not receive light, it will also be stunted.

3. Watering

Xiandong Monstera prefers water. During the growth period, it should be provided with sufficient water to keep the soil moist, but there should be no stagnant water, otherwise it will inhibit the respiration of the roots. Especially during the rainy season, plants need to be drained in time after being exposed to rain. In addition, due to the lower temperature in winter, the demand for water is reduced, so it can be appropriately drier.

4. Fertilization

< p>Xiandong Monstera does not require much fertilizer, and it is usually sufficient to topdress once a month during the growth period. Fertilizers are usually based on nitrogen, which can promote the growth of branches and leaves. If the plant lacks fertilizer, the stems and leaves will turn yellow and there will be fewer holes in the leaves. But if you apply too much, it will cause it to grow too long and affect its appearance.

5. Repotting

Xiandong Monstera usually needs a flower pot with a diameter of 15-20 cm, in which 3-4 plants can be planted. It needs to be repotted every 1-2 years and replanted with loose and fertile soil. If you prepare it yourself , peat soil, leaf humus soil, coarse sand, etc. are usually used.
