Monstera adansonii, commonly known as the Swiss Cheese Vine, is a much-loved tropical climber admired for its unique, perforated leaves and easy-going nature. A member of the Araceae family and native to the rainforests of Central and South America, this species embodies the wild, untamed beauty of the jungle while remaining compact and manageable indoors.

Its heart-shaped leaves are deep green and adorned with natural oval-shaped holes (fenestrations), giving the plant its iconic “Swiss cheese” appearance. As the plant matures, the leaves become larger and more intricately perforated, creating a delicate yet dramatic texture. Monstera adansonii is both a climber and trailer, making it perfect for hanging baskets, tall shelves, or trained up a moss pole for a lush, vertical statement.

Lively, tropical, and wonderfully versatile, the Swiss Cheese Vine brings instant jungle charm to any home — a true favourite among plant enthusiasts and interior designers alike.


Monstera adansonii – Care Guide

Light

Thrives in bright, indirect light. Too much direct sunlight can scorch its delicate leaves, while too little light may slow growth and reduce leaf perforation. East- or north-facing windows are ideal, or filtered light through sheer curtains in brighter rooms.

Watering

Keep the soil lightly moist but never soggy. Water when the top 2–3 cm of soil feels dry. In winter, reduce watering slightly while maintaining gentle moisture. Always ensure good drainage to prevent root rot — Monstera adansonii prefers to dry out a little between waterings.

Temperature and Humidity

Temperature: Prefers warmth between 18–28 °C; avoid cold drafts and temperatures below 15 °C.
Humidity: High humidity (60–80%) encourages healthy growth and glossy foliage. Mist regularly, use a humidifier, or group with other tropical plants to create a humid environment.

Soil and Potting

Use a rich, airy, and well-draining mix — compost combined with perlite, orchid bark, and coco coir works perfectly. This mimics its natural epiphytic conditions, providing aeration while retaining gentle moisture. Repot every 1–2 years in spring to refresh nutrients and promote strong root growth.

Feeding

Feed every 4–6 weeks in spring and summer with a diluted, balanced liquid fertiliser. Avoid over-fertilising, which can cause leaf burn or salt build-up. Suspend feeding in autumn and winter.

Pruning and Maintenance

Prune to control length and encourage bushier growth. Cuttings root easily in water or moist soil, making propagation simple. Wipe the leaves occasionally with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and enhance their natural gloss. Rotate the plant occasionally for even light exposure and balanced growth.

Growth and Maturity

A moderately fast grower, Monstera adansonii can reach 1.5–2 metres indoors when supported. Its vining habit allows it to climb or trail, producing larger and more fenestrated leaves as it matures. With the right care, it develops into a lush, cascading feature that instantly transforms interiors.

Common Issues

  • Yellow leaves: Overwatering or poor drainage.

  • Brown edges: Low humidity or inconsistent watering.

  • Sparse growth: Insufficient light.

  • Pests: Occasionally affected by thrips or spider mites — treat with neem oil and maintain humidity.


Background and Benefits

Native to the humid tropical forests of Central and South America, Monstera adansonii grows as an epiphyte, climbing trees in search of dappled light and absorbing moisture from the air. Its natural fenestrations allow wind and light to pass through the leaves in the dense rainforest canopy — an adaptation that also makes it highly decorative in indoor spaces.

Like other Monsteras, it’s an excellent natural air purifier, filtering toxins and improving indoor air quality. Symbolically, its perforated leaves represent adaptability and growth — a reminder of resilience and flexibility in changing environments.

Perfect for bright living spaces, bedrooms, or conservatories, the Swiss Cheese Vine brings a lush, jungle-inspired atmosphere wherever it grows.

    Nice gentle body wash
    Scent: Pomegranate & Hibiscus, Size: 30.6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
    Love the shampoo it lathers on nicely and smells wonderful for the price it's fantastic. Hard to go wrong with a classic brand like Dove. I personally don't get the 24hr lotion support however. My skin still feels fairly dry by morning after taking a shower a night. Might be another cause but this hasn't seemed to help much. At very least however it leaves me feeling cleaning and smelling nice for the night.

    Scent: Peach, Size: 30.6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
    This is hands down the best body wash of all time. I feel really clean and my skin feels extra moisturized. I've never used a better body was in all my 32 years. My holy grail. I've tried most of their scents in this line... and this is my humble opinion on the scents: 1. This White Peach & Rice Milk scent is the best one. By far. It's just a very girly, flowery, fresh scent. It makes my shower feel like I'm at the spa, every time. It's leagues ahead of the other scents. 2. The Coconut & Cocoa Butter smells like you'd imagine it to smell. Delicious! 3. The Mango & Almond Butter. Ya know... at first... this was my favorite. However, the more showers I took.. the less I liked this scent and found myself missing the white peach scent. 4. Shea Butter & Vanilla. I originally thought this would be my favorite scent but it's just... okay. I'm usually a shea butter & vanilla girly through and through. But this one left me underwhelmed. Still a great body wash, though. 5. Just the regular degular dove body wash. The scent is still nice if you don't like scents. 6. By far the worst dove body wash scent (although it isn't in this line) is the Dove Men + Care Blackcurrent & Cedarwood scent. Immediately no. (The Coconut & Pink Jasmine deodorant smells sooooo good, by the way.) That's all. Buy it! You won't regret it :)

    Liquid silk
    I am obsessed with this product! I originally bought it when I was in Paris and I loved it. It is the smoothest silkiest texture. A small amount goes along way. I put it on at night as part of my bedtime routine and the changes I have noticed my skin are amazing. I think the price point is good not too expensive and it lasts a long time it hydrates my face super well has a slight scent, but very pleasant. No greasiness.

    Accutane holy grail!!
    I’ve been on accutane for 2 months and have used this day and night. My skin has not flaked once and has appeared so hydrated despite taking a very drying medication! It’s very lightweight, non-stick, and quickly absorbs into my skin. I don’t usually write reviews but this is worth while for accutane users!
