Monstera deliciosa 

Monstera deliciosa (Monstera deliciosa), also known as the Swiss Cheese Plant, is a popular tropical houseplant admired for its large, glossy, fenestrated leaves. It adds a bold, jungle-like aesthetic to any space and is relatively easy to care for.

Light

• Thrives in bright, indirect light.

• Can tolerate some direct morning sunlight but avoid harsh afternoon rays.

• Low light can slow growth and reduce leaf fenestrations.

Watering

• Allow the top 1–2 inches of soil to dry before watering.

• Water thoroughly, ensuring proper drainage—avoid waterlogging.

• Reduce watering in fall and winter when growth slows.

Temperature

• Ideal temperature: 65–85°F.

• Cannot tolerate temperatures below 55°F.

• Keep away from cold drafts, heaters, and air conditioners.

Fertilizing

• Feed during the growing season (spring–summer) with a diluted, balanced liquid fertilizer every 4 weeks.

• Avoid over-fertilizing to prevent leaf discoloration.

• Do not fertilize in fall and winter when growth slows.
