Monstera Devil Monster Albo House Plants Variegated Rare Tropical Starter Plant Cuttings The Monstera “Devil Monster” is usually a nickname sellers use for a giant Monstera deliciosa (Borsigiana or Deliciosa form) with huge, deeply split and fenestrated leaves that look a little wild or “devilish.” If you have a Devil Monster cutting, the process to grow it is the same as propagating a standard Monstera deliciosa cutting. Here’s the full guide: How to Grow a Monstera “Devil Monster” Cutting 1. Check the Cutting Must have at least one healthy node (essential for root growth). Look for an aerial root nub this speeds up rooting. Leaves are good but not required; the node is what matters. 2. Prepare the Cutting Use sterilized shears to cut just below a node. Trim off any lower leaves that would sit in water/soil. Let the cut end callus for 2–6 hours before rooting to prevent rot. 3. Pick a Rooting Method You can root the Devil Monster cutting in: a) Water Place node into clean water, leaves above waterline. Change water every 3–5 days. Keep in a warm, bright spot (indirect light). b) Sphagnum Moss (best for big cuttings) Moisten moss (damp, not wet). Tuck node into moss, place in a clear container for humidity. Mist moss occasionally to keep moisture. c) Perlite / LECA Place cutting in a cup of perlite/LECA. Add some water to the bottom for wicking. This provides airflow and reduces rot risk. 4. Ideal Growing Conditions Light: Bright, indirect sunlight (too much sun can burn leaves). Temperature: 22–28°C (72–82°F). Humidity: 60–80% for faster rooting. A mini greenhouse or plastic cover helps. 5. Root Development Roots usually appear in 2–6 weeks. When roots reach 2–3 inches long, it’s ready for soil. 6. Planting into Soil Use a chunky aroid soil mix for airflow and drainage: 40% coco coir or peat moss 30% orchid bark 20% perlite 10% charcoal/pumice Pot into a small container first to avoid overwatering. Keep soil lightly moist (not soggy). 7. Aftercare Provide a moss pole or support Devil Monster grows large and climbs. Water when the top 2 inches of soil dry out. Fertilize monthly with diluted liquid fertilizer in growing season. Rotate occasionally so it grows evenly and keeps those dramatic splits. Tips for Devil Monster Cuttings Juvenile leaves may not have splits at first fenestrations develop as the plant matures and climbs. Large cuttings root slower than small ones be patient. Don’t expose white roots to direct sun when transferring to soil they’re delicate.
