These plants are unusual as they were first mixed up with Philodendrons. However, they are not related to them. They originate from Central America. We wanted to make a blend of potting mix optimized for this unique plant. TIPS: Yellow or Yellowing Monstera leaves are a sign that your plant may not be getting enough air or water. If you are using a mix that doesn’t offer enough drainage, your plant will be sitting in water. In simple terms, it’s drowning! If you are using a mix that doesn’t hold enough water, your plants may not be able to take in the water they need. This can also cause yellow leaves. Brown spots are a symptom of root rot caused by overwatering. These spots may appear small and then enlarge and/or spread throughout the plant over time. INGREDIENTS: peat moss, perlite, coconut coir, fir bark, worm castings, horticultural charcoal, and lime.
