Caring for Monstera esqueleto is a little more advanced than caring for many other Monstera species, like adansonii or juvenile. However, all your hard work will pay off as the plant will reward you with beautiful leaves that will elevate any space. Today, I'll tell you how to care for this plant. If you are curious, then see the details below!

• Soil

  Like most aroids, Monstera esqueleto requires a well-draining soil mix that retains some moisture. You can buy the pre-mix soil at your local farm, which costs around $12 per quart. Otherwise, you can make your own at home using a combination of perlite, orchid bark mix, and indoor potting soil.

• Water

  You can water Monstera esqueleto every spring and summer. Pour them with fresh water once the top two or three inches of soil have dried. If the season reaches fall or winter, you can cut back on watering slightly, as they aren't actively growing in these months.

• Light

  Monstera esqueleto requires plenty of bright and indirect sunlight to support its large leaves. It will not do well in low light conditions or direct sun, which may lead to leaf scorching afterward. Place this plant where the sun rays never make direct contact with the leaves—for instance, the east-facing window.

  

• Temperature and Humidity

  Technically, an average household temperature level is acceptable for Monstera esqueleto. However, this plant enjoys warm and humid conditions a lot! If your house air is dry, combine it with other houseplants or put a small humidifier nearby. If you have a steamy bathroom, you can also place this beautiful plant there!

  

• Fertilizer

  Esqueleto monstera's best fertilization time is during the spring and summer months when they are actively growing. I recommend using a gentle liquid fertilizer on your local farms. Apply it monthly during watering and stop fertilizing once the season temperatures drop.

• Propagating Monstera esqueleto

  A mature Monstera esqueleto may need propagation to grow new plants. Propagating them is easy, as the steps are similar to those of other Monstera. For the best result, I always propagate during spring or summer.

Conclusion

Monstera esqueleto requires moderate attention but is genuinely easy to care for. Follow the steps I mentioned to support your plant's healthy growth. I hope these steps are easy to understand so that your Monstera esqueleto can get the care it deserves.
