Until recently, Monstera obliqua was truly one of those rare plants, even in its natural habitat. It's been said that until 1977, it had only been observed in the wild 17 times. Until a couple of years ago, there was a famous hashtag on the internet, #itsneverobliqua, precisely because there were so few references that people often confused it with its sister plant, Monstera adansonii. However, thanks to in vitro culture laboratories, Monstera obliqua has become a relatively accessible plant for plant enthusiasts worldwide.

Remarkable due to its foliage (like most Monstera species), Monstera obliqua Peru seems to be a plant of extremes, as the fenestrations become larger and eventually make up 90% of the leaf as the plant matures. The plant's foliage develops a lace-like pattern due to these fenestrations.

Certainly, the leaves of Monstera obliqua are stunning, but they have specific needs:

  • Air humidity should be consistently high, ideally 85% or higher. This is why Monstera obliqua isn't suitable for growth in a living room but thrives in a terrarium or an Ikea cabinet upgraded with grow lights to create a terrarium-like environment.
  • Monstera obliqua is capable of producing stolons, leafless stems that naturally grow horizontally on the ground until they find another tree to climb (in the wild, they can reach lengths of up to 20 meters). Hence, the plant requires support; a moss pole is particularly suitable.
  • If not kept under appropriate conditions, it can easily attract pests, with common ones being whiteflies, mealybugs, red spider mites, and scale insects. If left untreated, the plant could die.

Attention! To check the substrate's moisture level, the best method is to insert a finger into the pot to a depth of 2 cm (about 0.8 inches). Unlike other Monstera species, Monstera obliqua prefers consistently moist substrate.

Attention 2! When discussing watering, consider the pot's size, the amount of substrate, and its aeration. Avoid pouring a liter of water into a pot with a diameter and height of 12 cm (4.7 inches) as it could drown the plant's roots. It's best to discard excess water from the saucer about half an hour after watering.

The plant should be mounted on a support pole covered in moss. This allows the aerial roots to attach to the support, resulting in a more robust stem and progressively larger leaves.

Good luck with caring for your plant! And don't forget to give us updates about your plant by using the hashtag #greenmirrors and tagging @green.mirrors in your Instagram posts! We promise to share them in our stories.

loud but in a good way
Size: 4.5"
Love these crazy loud squeeky balls. I bought two a bit too big but the dogs still love them. Yes, they will drive you insane but the dogs love them so much it's worth it watching the pups enjoy the balls. They are strong and safe as long as they aren't too small for your dogs mouth.

Great for aggressive chewers - Great for clean teeth
I never thought these would stand up to my 60lb pittie puppy's chewing. But they are far and away her favorite toy and are holding up beautifully. One squeaker insert bit the dust -- which is not bad since it gives us one silent one. But otherwise they are holding up superbly to her powerful jaws. We have tried a lot of toys. So far, all the "for aggressive chewers" toys have been torn apart within days if we are lucky -- usually it's minutes. But these balls show little-to-no sign of wear. The squeakers are very loud which she loves can get a bit tiresome. So, as I mentioned, having one silent one is a great option. And she really likes the texture. She loves them so much, we bought a second set and will probably buy a third to have in reserve. (We are realistic and don't expect them to last forever.) All I have to say is "where's spiky ball" and she instantly stops what she is doing and goes on the hunt. A great buy!! (NOTE: It's been almost three months and one is just beginning to show some damage. Given that she plays with them non-stop, they've showed amazing durability. And everyone comments on how clean and beautiful her teeth are. I don't brush them or give her dental treats. So it has to be these balls!!)

Good sturdy ball for aggressive chewer
Size: 4.5"
Nice heavy duty ball that my 7 yr old pitbull can chew on and not destroy it in 2 minutes. Wish that could get 3 for the cost but whatever. Nice bright colors . Good size that he won't choke on it .

Great ball but poor squeaked design
Size: 4.5"
My Rottie loves these balls. The ball lasts a long time even though he plays hard and chews them. My biggest complaint is the squeaker disconnects easily from inside the ball, the glue does not hold! We have bought many of these balls because eventually the area where the squeaker is attached comes away from the ball leaving an open whole that causes the ball to eventually developed a long crack at which point it no longer is able to be thrown nor is is fun for him any longer.

Well made and great fun for our Pittie
Size: 4.5"
My pittie loves these! They are way thicker than others. He has learned how to chew on the spikes. Seems like a good teeth cleaning too. Yes, the squeaker breaks! That is a great thing!! With his active chewing, that sound was driving us crazy after a while.
