How to prune monstera karstenianum peru variegata

Monstera Karstenianum Peru Variegata needs little pruning beyond removing dead or damaged leaves and any stems that have fully reverted to all-green. You may trim a stem to take a cutting or redirect climbing growth. Avoid heavy pruning — variegated growth is slower and the plant needs its leaves to fuel recovery.
