Monstera Deliciosa Care & Information

The Monstera Deliciosa, sometimes also known as the Swiss Cheese Plant, is a striking tropical houseplant famous for its large, fenestrated (fancy word for "holes") leaves. It’s popular not just for its dramatic foliage, but also for being surprisingly easy to care for —it thrives in indirect sunlight and is forgiving of both missed and over-watering.

As it matures, its leaves develop unique natural holes and splits (that's fenestration!), giving any space a lush, modern jungle feel. With support, it can climb and grow impressively tall, adding vertical interest to interiors. Perfect for beginners and plant lovers alike, Monstera Deliciosa is both a conversation piece and a reliable, low-maintenance addition to any indoor plant collection.
