This iconic houseplant has become a staple in many homes, and for good reason. It is an easy grower, and 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.
There are a lot of common names for this plant, including Swiss Cheese Plant, Swiss Cheese Vine, Mexican Breadfruit, Split-Leaf Philodendron, and more. Please note that while this is NOT a Philodendron, the genera Monstera and Philodendron are indeed related.
Watering: Keep soil evenly moist but not soggy. Allow the top 1–2 inches of soil to dry between waterings. Reduce watering in winter.
Soil: Well-draining potting mix with peat, perlite, and orchid bark is ideal.
Fertilizer: Feed every 4–6 weeks during the growing season (spring–summer) with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer at half strength. Reduce feeding in fall/winter.
Humidity: Prefers moderate to high humidity. Mist occasionally or use a humidity tray to promote healthy leaf development.
Pruning: Trim yellowing, damaged, or leggy stems to encourage fuller growth. Can use aerial roots to anchor or propagate.
Propagation: Easily propagated via stem cuttings with visible nodes; roots quickly in water or soil.
