Monstera Burle Marx Flame is a rare climbing Monstera known for developing dramatic, deeply divided mature leaves.

Size: 55cm in nursery pot 

Monstera Burle Marx Flame care:

• ☀️ Light: Bright indirect light. Strong light helps encourage larger, more fenestrated leaves. Avoid harsh direct afternoon sun.
• 💧 Water: Let the top 3–5 cm of the potting mix dry before watering again. Water thoroughly, then allow excess water to drain completely.
• 💦 Humidity: 60–80% is excellent. It can tolerate normal household humidity, but higher humidity generally gives better growth.
• 🌡️ Temperature: Ideally 20–30°C. Protect it from cold AC drafts.
• 🪴 Soil: Use a very chunky, fast-draining aroid mix. A combination of orchid bark + perlite/pumice + coco chips/coir + a little potting mix works well.
• 🌿 Moss pole: Highly recommended. Burle Marx Flame is a climber, and allowing it to root into a moss pole can dramatically improve leaf size and maturity.
• 🌱 Fertilizer: A balanced fertilizer at ¼–½ strength every 2–4 weeks while actively growing.
• 🪴 Pot: Don't use an oversized pot. The pot should have excellent drainage.
• Pet Safety: 🐾
  Not pet-friendly. Monstera Burle Marx Flame contains insoluble calcium oxalate crystals, which can cause mouth irritation, drooling, vomiting, and difficulty swallowing if chewed or ingested by cats or dogs. Keep the plant safely out of reach of pets.
