Something about those plants with lots of fenestrations!

Sunlight (or light), moss pole (not a coir pole), humidity and fertilizer make leaves like these possible.

Big leaves for the win!

🌿✨ How to Grow Big, Beautiful Monstera Thai Constellation Leaves ✨🌿
Want those big, dreamy, fenestrated leaves? Let’s get into it, because your Thai deserves the VIP treatment.

🪴 Soil Game Strong
We ONLY pot our plants in a chunky, airy mix—because Thai Constellations hate sitting in soggy soil. Think: orchid bark, perlite, coco coir… the good stuff. It mimics their natural environment and lets those roots breathe!

💧 Watering Wisdom
Let the top 2 inches of soil dry out between waterings. These beauties don’t like wet feet—overwatering is a fast track to root rot. Water less often in cooler months and always check moisture levels.

☀️ What is Bright Indirect Light?
Basically, it’s not direct sun. Place your Thai near a window where it gets lots of light—just not blasting rays. Think a bright room with filtered sunlight or near an east or north-facing window. If your shadow is soft and blurry, you’re in the sweet spot!

🌱 Feed Me, Seymour
Use a balanced liquid fertilizer monthly during growing season (spring through summer). Thai Constellations are slow growers, so consistent nutrients = stronger, fuller growth.

💪 Silica Support
Want sturdier stems and bigger leaves? Add a silica supplement to your watering routine. It strengthens cell walls, improves nutrient uptake, and helps support those huge leaves from flopping!

Philodendron gloriosum is a crawling philodendron, not a climber. It grows horizontally along the ground, spreading via a rhizome, rather than climbing upwards. However. You CAN train it to climb!
PG1 is a beautiful 5 leader and these leaves can get huge!
