Monstera deliciosa, often called the Split-Leaf Philodendron or Swiss Cheese Plant, is a tropical favorite loved for its bold, dramatic foliage. Its large, glossy green leaves naturally develop deep splits and fenestrations as the plant matures, creating a striking architectural look that instantly elevates any space.
Fast-growing and easy to care for, Monstera thrives in bright, indirect light and prefers evenly moist soil that’s allowed to dry slightly between waterings. With time, it can grow into an impressive statement plant, making it ideal for floor pots or a focal point in your home.

Water: Water when the top 1–2 inches of soil are dry

A true classic, Monstera deliciosa brings tropical charm, lush greenery, and timeless style to any plant collection.
