Monstera deliciosa, also known as the Swiss Cheese Plant, is the ultimate statement houseplant. With big, glossy, holey leaves and a lush, tropical feel, it’s basically interior design in a pot. Easy to grow and even easier to love, this climbing beauty will bring jungle vibes to any space — and yes, it can grow into a monster if you let it.
Plant Care
Light:
Loves bright, indirect light but will tolerate lower light too (just expect fewer splits). Avoid harsh direct sun unless it’s filtered.
Watering:
Let the top third of the soil dry out between waterings. Less is more — soggy roots = sad Monstera. Give it filtered water if your tap is hard.
Temperature:
Thrives in 18–26°C. Keep away from cold draughts and radiators.
Potting:
Loves our Airy Aroid mix — chunky, breathable, and just the right amount of hold for those thick roots.
Hot tips:
Wipe those leaves to keep them glossy, and give it a moss pole or stake to climb if you want big, dramatic growth. You can prune it back if it gets too wild — or don’t. We support jungle chaos.
Pet Friendly: No
