Swiss Cheese Vine

$9.99 / 2"


Monstera adansonii · Item # 23821


Extended Features: This vine is an extremely vigorous and easy grower. The fenestrated leaves with their unusual holes and slits are truly eye-catching! Juvenile plant foliage will be solid, and fenestrations will appear over time as the plant gets bigger and grows. Monstera adansonii is sometimes called 'Monstera friedrichsthalii', however Monstera adansonii is the accepted name. Some common names for this plant include Swiss Cheese Plant and Swiss Cheese Vine. Monstera adansonii is very commonly confused with Monstera obliqua. The obliqua species is very rare and adansonii is often mistakenly labeled as obliqua.
How To Maintain:
  • For optimal performance, keep at 60-85°F (15-29°C).
  • Protect furniture when watering.
  • Feed once per month at half strength when plant is actively growing.
  • This plant can be grown either in a hanging basket with vines trailing over the edge, or growing up a support such as a moss pole, wood board, etc. where aerial roots can attach and the plant will climb.  Leaves will get bigger and bigger if you provide a good structure that the aerial roots can attach to.
  • Water when the top inch or two of the soil is dry.
  • Use a well-drained potting mix.  Adding some perlite and/or orchid bark will improve drainage.
