Add something a little different to your Monstera collection with Monstera ‘Bulbasaur’! This unique cultivar is prized by collectors for its distinctive foliage and potential to develop even more impressive leaves as the plant matures.

This listing is for a young starter plug, giving you the opportunity to grow your plant from an early stage and watch it develop over time.

🌱 Plant: Monstera ‘Bulbasaur’ 🪴 Type: Starter Plug 📏 Size: Young starter plant

Care

💡 Light: Provide bright, indirect light. A few hours of gentle morning or filtered sunlight is great, but avoid intense direct afternoon sun that can scorch young leaves.

💧 Water: Water when the growing medium begins to dry slightly. Keep the plug evenly moist but avoid keeping it constantly saturated.

🌱 Soil: Once established, transplant into a chunky, well-draining aroid mix containing materials such as coco coir, perlite, orchid bark, or sphagnum moss.

🌡️ Temperature: Keep warm, ideally around 65–85°F, and protect from cold drafts or temperatures below 55°F.

💨 Humidity: Moderate to high humidity is beneficial, particularly while the plant is young. Good airflow is important to prevent fungal issues.

🌿 Fertilizer: Once actively growing and established, feed with a balanced, diluted fertilizer during the growing season. Avoid heavy fertilization while the plant is still establishing its roots.

Starter Plug Notes

Starter plugs are young plants and may require some time to establish after shipping. Allow the plant to acclimate before repotting, especially if it has recently been shipped.

Growth rate, leaf size, coloration, and overall appearance will vary between individual plants. The plant you receive may look different from a mature specimen shown in photos.

Please note: Minor leaf damage or yellowing can occur during shipping and acclimation and does not necessarily indicate a problem with the plant.
