Where The Delicious Monster is Happiest:

• Hailing from a tropical environment, the Delicious Monster can be grown in moderate to bright light, avoiding direct sunlight.
• In the ideal conditions, the Delicious Monster grows new leaves rapidly and needs space to grow wild in its natural jungle style.

Watering The Delicious Monster:

• Water well about once a week, pouring until the water drains right down into the pot and out of the drainage holes at the bottom.
• Allow the soil to just dry out before watering again.

Feeding The Delicious Monster:

• Fertilise your Delicious Monster once every 2 weeks during Spring, Summer and Autumn (the growing season) with a liquid plant food. 

Care Tips:

• The Delicious Monster has a natural wild tendency, and will need support (in the form of a moss pole or trellis or stake) as it grows.  
• Your Delicious Monster will start crying if you over water it. If the leaves start dripping, this indicates that the soil is too wet and you need to reduce watering.
