4" Monstera obliqua sp. Peru
Pickup currently unavailable at Canopy HQ
Care
Care
Bright indirect light
Allow soil to dry almost completely between watering
Monstera obliqua is very similar to Monstera adansonii, except that this species has large fenestrations and grows a bit slower. This is the form found in areas of Peru.
We highly recommend allowing your Monstera obliqua to climb, so provide it with a coco pole or other support structure. As it climbs higher, the leaves will become larger and the fenestrations greatly pronounced.
Monstera obliqua care:
This plant prefers a well draining soil that is rich in organic matter. Allow the soil to dry out almost completely before watering, taking care to not allow it to sit in excess water. Monstera obliqua prefers higher than average humidity for optimal growth. Provide your plant with plenty of bright indirect light.
Additional information:
Monstera, also referred to as "Swiss Cheese Plant", are a type of aroid native to many different countries in Latin America. Monstera can be found growing in its natural habitat in Costa Rica, Mexico, Brazil, Ecuador, Colombia, etc.
In the wild, Monstera have a variety of growth habits. They can climb or spread as ground cover. If they are allowed to climb, Monstera leaves will become much larger and begin to fenestrate. They are semi-epiphytic.
Monstera can grow in low indirect light but prefer medium to bright indirect light. If grown in low light conditions their growth will slow.
They tend to be easy to care for and make a great addition to any houseplant collection.
Sizing information:
Plants are living organisms, so each one is unique and may vary slightly in size, fullness, color, and maturity depending on the season, growing conditions, and current availability. We do our best to match the product photos and descriptions as closely as possible while ensuring you receive a healthy, high-quality plant.
Plant arrived very healthy even though I had put a vacation hold and plants arrived 3 days later than planned. Love love love
Thank you for the prompt delivery. I was a little concerned about the weather because of the below freezing temperatures but I was happy to find a heat pack. The packaging of the plant was perfect and it arrived safe, intact and alive. Great plant quality.
This plant arrived well packaged and putting out a couple leaves since arriving. She was a tiny bit wilted upon arrival (to be expected) but has bounced back beautifully.
Extremely healthy plant that is already pushing out new leaves and growth points.
Plant is beautiful and healthy. It felt like the plants were hand delivered to your doorstep. The packaging was meticulous. Perfectly executed transaction. Worth every $$$.
Took me a while to take the plunge on this plant but I’m so happy I did! It arrived really healthy, in beautiful condition. There are several growth points on it. I can’t wait to see it grow!
This plant came exactly as pictured and I couldn’t be happier :)
This plant has been on my wishlist for a long time. I have bought from Canopy a few times in the past, but was a little nervouse because I bought the last Obliqua Peru in stock at the time so was not sure what to expect. Well, have no fear buying the last plant - because she is perfect! She even had a brand new leaf that was ready to unfurl. Canopy's shipping is top notch and I can always feel confident my plants will arrive in great shape. Love supporting this small business.
Arrive quickly and in beautiful condition
Received my monstera quickly and in very great health. Ordering, shipping and service was all great. Thank you!
Hi Jack, we're so glad to hear you had a great experience! Thanks for choosing Canopy Plant Co. Enjoy your new Monstera 😊
Plant arrived very healthy and is putting out new leaves. Another great shopping experience!
I just got this plant about a week or two ago. It’s very cool but started to get some yelling leaves. I inquired about it and tbey said it’s likely acclimation stress and that this plant is a bit more sensitive. I still love it though!
Beautiful little plant
Can't wait for it to get bigger
This was my first time ordering through Canopy Plant Co. and I have to say the speed at which they completed my order, to it arriving at my door secured and alive was really awesome. I definitely will do business with you all again.
I've been searching for this plant for ages and serendipitously stumbled upon Canopy plant co. All the reviews were so positive I just had to order it. Got a very healthy plant that I'm so in love with. Received it on valentine's day.
I LOVE this obliqua peru. It's been a wishlist plant for a long time and I'm glad to have found it here. It weathered winter shipping cos I couldn't wait. And I got two and gave one as a gift and loved it too.
It’s the real deal, exactly what I wanted and it’s perfect! It’s already unraveling a new leaf and I’m enamored! I have my eye on the monstera mint and I definitely will be ordering more plants from you very soon. Thank you!
My plant arrived quickly, was packed securely and was healthy. It is producing 3 or 4 new leaves every week now. Love your attention to detail.
Beautiful plant, arrived in great condition. Highly recommend ,

4" Monstera obliqua sp. Peru
Will order from Canopy again!
Plant arrived so safely packaged! This is probably the healthiest obliqua I've ever seen too. It's already putting out new leaves and adapting quite nicely to its new home.
My plant arrived in perfect condition and is sitting right next to the humidifier.
Strongly recommend the shop. Healthy and well packed plants.
