Monstera deliciosa

The iconic Monstera deliciosa, also known as the “Swiss Cheese Plant,” is a tropical statement maker. Its large glossy leaves develop signature splits and fenestrations as it matures, creating a lush, jungle-like atmosphere indoors.

✔ Why it’s special:

• Instantly recognisable, a houseplant icon

• Air-purifying and vigorous grower

• Develops stunning natural fenestrations with age

🪴 Care guide:

• Light: Bright, indirect light. Can adapt to medium light.

• Water: Water when the top 5cm of soil has dried out.

• Humidity: Prefers 60%+ but tolerates average homes.

• Feeding: Fortnightly during the growing season.

• Growth habit: A climbing plant — grows best with support like a moss or coir pole.

In Central America, the Monstera’s fruit is edible when ripe and tastes like a mix of pineapple and banana — hence the name deliciosa.
