    Monstera Adansonii

    Botanical Name: Monstera adansonii

    Common Name(s): Swiss Cheese Vine, Monkey Mask Monstera

    Monstera adansonii, often referred to as the Swiss Cheese Vine, is prized for its distinctive, fenestrated leaves with oval-shaped holes. This vining plant is native to Central and South America and is highly popular as a houseplant due to its unique leaf pattern and ease of care. Typically, it grows well in hanging baskets or as a climbing plant on a moss pole, adding a tropical feel to any space.

    Swiss Cheese Plants thrive in bright, indirect light, which encourages faster growth and more pronounced fenestrations, though they can tolerate lower light levels with slower growth. They prefer well-draining soil that stays slightly moist, so it's best to water when the top inch of soil feels dry. High humidity levels are ideal, though the plant can adapt to average indoor humidity.

    Air Purifying Qualities: Like other Monsteras, Monstera adansonii has air-purifying properties, helping to remove toxins like formaldehyde and benzene from the air. Its foliage contributes to creating a fresher indoor environment by absorbing carbon dioxide and releasing oxygen.

    Note: Monstera adansonii is mildly toxic if ingested due to calcium oxalate crystals, which can cause irritation. It’s best to keep this plant out of reach of pets and small children to ensure safety.

    Care Insights & Expert Tips

    Sunlight

    Bright, indirect light: Thrives in bright, indirect light for 6-8 hours daily. Too little light can cause the plant to grow slowly and produce smaller leaves with fewer holes (fenestrations).

    Water

    Water weekly: Allow the top soil to dry before watering again. In winter, reduce watering to every 10-14 days as growth slows and the plant requires less moisture.

    Temperature

    Warm temperatures: Performs best in temperatures between 65-80°F (18-27°C). Avoid temperatures below 55°F (13°C), as the plant is sensitive to cold and can develop leaf damage.

      1. Support and Growth Pattern: As a climbing plant, it benefits from a moss pole or trellis, which will allow the plant to produce larger leaves with more pronounced fenestrations.
      2. Fertilizing Details: Use a balanced, diluted liquid fertilizer every 4-6 weeks in spring and summer. Avoid fertilizing in winter when growth slows. Too much fertilizer can lead to salt buildup, so flush the soil every few months.
      3. Pruning Techniques: Trim any yellow, damaged, or overly long vines to encourage a bushier shape. Clean pruning shears with rubbing alcohol before and after pruning to prevent disease spread.
      4. Pest Management: Regularly inspect for pests like spider mites, scale, and mealybugs, which are attracted to the large leaves. Wipe the leaves with a damp cloth once a month and treat any infestations with neem oil or insecticidal soap. Spider mites, in particular, thrive in dry environments, so keeping humidity high can prevent them.

      FAQs

      Do you have a return or replacement policy for plants?

      Due to the perishable nature of plants, we do not accept returns based on personal preference.

Our risk-free, 30-day customer guarantee covers cases where plants arrive damaged, dead, sick, or incorrect items were sent. We will send you a replacement plant or provide a refund.

      If there’s an issue with your order, please notify us within 30 days so we can address the issue as quickly as possible. To learn more, visit 30-Day Customer Guarantee.

      Can I order and receive plants during the winter?

      Yes, we ship plants year-round! Our shipments are carefully packaged to ensure we deliver healthy plants to your door every day of the year. We monitor the weather across the country and will include heat packs at no extra charge to keep your plants warm during shipping. If weather conditions are extreme (e.g., storm or severe winter), we will inform you of an updated delivery date that we believe is more appropriate.

      How can I change my order details?

      To update your order details, please contact us within 24 hours of placing your order. We care about all our customers and will like to ship the correct item to the right location. We are not held responsible for orders shipped to incorrect addresses. In addition, we cannot cancel orders that has already been shipped.

      If I order more than one plant, will they ship separately?

      Items apart of the same order typically ship together. In rare circumstances, the items may ship from both our Southern California and Florida greenhouses and could arrive in separate packages at different times. For these instances, once each item is shipped, you'll receive individual tracking information for each package, so you can easily track their progress.

      Where do you ship?

      We currently ship to the contiguous United States which consists of the 48 U.S. states and the District of Columbia.

      Do you offer same-day or next-day delivery?

      Unfortunately, we do not offer same-day or next-day delivery. Plants require careful preparation and packaging to ensure they arrive healthy and in optimal condition, we take the necessary time to pack them properly. This ensures that your plants are shipped safely and arrive ready to thrive.
