About this plant
The Thai Constellation Monstera is a beautiful and eye-catching houseplant, but it can be more challenging to find and may require a bit more care compared to the standard Monstera deliciosa. With proper attention to lighting, temperature, humidity, watering, and fertilization, you can enjoy the unique beauty of this variegated Monstera variety.

Lighting: Provide bright, indirect light to the Thai Constellation Monstera. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can scorch the leaves. Place it near a window with filtered or indirect light.

Temperature: Maintain temperatures between 65-85°F (18-29°C). Avoid exposing the plant to extreme temperature fluctuations and drafts.

Humidity: The Thai Constellation Monstera appreciates higher humidity levels. You can increase humidity by misting the leaves, placing the plant on a pebble tray with water, or using a humidifier.

Watering: Water the plant when the top inch of soil feels dry. Ensure that the pot has proper drainage to prevent waterlogging, as overly soggy soil can lead to root rot. Adjust the watering frequency based on the plant's needs and environmental conditions.

Soil: Use well-draining soil that retains some moisture but doesn't stay overly wet. A mix of peat moss, perlite, and regular potting soil can work well.

Fertilization: Feed the Thai Constellation Monstera with a balanced houseplant fertilizer diluted to half strength once a month during the growing season (spring and summer). Avoid fertilizing during winter months when the plant is in a dormant phase.

Support and Pruning: As the plant grows, it may benefit from a moss pole or other support to help it climb. Regularly prune any yellow or damaged leaves to maintain the plant's appearance.

Re-potting
Choose a larger pot with drainage holes if you want to re-pot a Thai Constellation Monstera. The plant should be carefully removed from its current container, placed in the new pot at the same depth, and then filled with new soil. For optimum growth, provide ample water and bright, indirect light.

Propagation
Take a stem cutting with at least one or two nodes and allow it to dry out for a few days to propagate a Thai Constellation Monstera. Plant the cutting in a well-draining rooting medium, making sure to completely cover the node(s). Put it somewhere warm and humid with indirect light, and water it just enough to keep the soil moist.
Keep an eye out for new growth and occasionally mist the leaves. Transplant the cutting into a larger pot once it has developed sturdy roots and new growth.
