Swiss Cheese Plant (Monstera deliciosa) is a bold tropical climber prized for its large, glossy leaves that develop dramatic splits and holes (“fenestrations”). A statement plant for bright interiors or shaded patios.
Foliage: Huge heart-shaped leaves that split and perforate with age.
Habit/size: Vining/climbing aroid; indoors typically 4–8 ft (larger with a moss pole).
Light: Bright, indirect light; brief gentle sun is fine, avoid harsh midday rays.
Water: Let top 1–2 in of soil dry, then water thoroughly; needs excellent drainage.
Soil: Airy, chunky mix (potting soil + bark/perlite).
Humidity & temp: Prefers 50%+ humidity; warm 65–85°F.
Growth: Benefits from a support (trellis/pole); easy to propagate from node cuttings.
Toxicity: Mildly toxic if ingested (pets/people).
Note: Rarely fruits indoors; ripe fruit is edible but unripe is irritating.
All plants come with a regular black nursery pot
