Monstera deliciosa (12cm pot)

Monstera deliciosa, commonly known as the Swiss Cheese Plant, is one of the most iconic and loved houseplants. Famous for its large glossy leaves that develop dramatic splits and natural holes as they mature, this tropical plant brings bold greenery and instant impact to any interior.

Native to the rainforests of Central America, Monstera deliciosa is a vigorous climbing plant that produces striking heart-shaped leaves and aerial roots as it grows. In its natural habitat it climbs trees in search of light, so providing a support such as a coir moss pole will encourage the plant to grow upwards and develop larger, more dramatic leaves.

This easy-care houseplant thrives in bright indoor spaces and is perfect for living rooms, bedrooms or home offices where you want a bold statement plant. Over time the plant can become impressively architectural, making the Swiss Cheese Plant a timeless favourite for plant lovers and interior design enthusiasts alike.

Plant Care
Place in bright, indirect light for best growth, though the plant will tolerate moderate shade. Water thoroughly, allowing the top inch of soil to dry out before watering again. During spring and summer, feeding with a balanced houseplant fertiliser such as Liquid Gold Leaf plant feed will help encourage strong growth and lush foliage.
