Should I use a tall or short pot for Monstera?

1. High pot or low pot

The Monstera plant is relatively tall, and its roots are relatively long and well-developed, so it is suitable for planting in a high pot, which can give the plant sufficient growth space and facilitate its healthy and vigorous growth. Of course, this also depends on the size of the Monstera plant. If the plant seedlings are small, you can choose a small pot. For plants that have been growing for several years, it is best to use a large pot so that the roots will not be entangled underneath and the problem of top-heavyness can be avoided.

2. Other requirements

The choice of flower pot is very important for plant growth. In addition to the height issue, there are other requirements.

1. Diameter: As for the size of the flowerpot, it is also determined by the specific size of the plant. If the plant is large, the diameter must be at least 25 cm to allow the branches and leaves to grow and stretch.

2. Material: Its roots are fleshy and cannot withstand a watery and humid environment. It needs to be provided with a certain breathable environment. If it is not breathable, the roots will rot directly. The materials you can choose from include clay pots, ceramic pots, and purple clay pots. Plastic pots have poor air permeability and are not recommended. Clay pots are not very aesthetically pleasing, so you can choose ceramic pots and purple clay pots.
