Looking for something a little wild and wonderful? The Monstera adansonii, often called the Swiss Cheese Plant thanks to its striking hole-filled leaves, brings a little jungle magic into any space. Its trailing emerald-green foliage spills beautifully from a hanging pot, creating an effortless, tropical vibe.

Size
W17cm x H50cm (including the trailing foliage). Supplied in a plastic nursery pot.

Native Habitat and Growth Patterns
Native to the humid rainforests of Central and South America, the Monstera adansonii thrives in dappled light beneath the forest canopy. It’s a natural climber, scrambling up trees in the wild, but indoors it’s just as happy trailing down from a shelf or hanging basket. This version is perfect if you're after a lush, trailing effect without the need for a moss pole.

Styling at Home
This plant is a brilliant choice for kitchens, bathrooms, or anywhere that gets bright, indirect light. Let it cascade from a high shelf or pop it in a hanging planter near a window – it adds instant texture and a bit of botanical drama. It’s the kind of plant that looks like you’ve made loads of effort (even when you haven’t).

Care Requirements
Monstera adansonii is easy-going and beginner-friendly. Think rainforest conditions – bright but indirect light, warmth, and a bit of humidity. A steamy bathroom or warm living room suits it well. Water when the top few inches of soil feel dry, and make sure it never sits in water. A little underwatering is better than too much love!

Top Tip
Avoid killing it with kindness. Most issues arise from overwatering – let the soil dry out between waterings, and it will reward you with lush growth.

Why Choose This Plant
This is one of those houseplants that always gets compliments. Its unusual leaves give it a unique look, and the trailing growth habit is perfect for styling small spaces without sacrificing greenery. It also makes a brilliant gift – and we’ll include a free handwritten card if you’re sending it as a present. No paperwork or prices, just a beautiful surprise.

Interesting Facts

  • The holes in the leaves are called fenestrations and help the plant survive in the wild by letting light through to the lower leaves.

  • It's often mistaken for the larger Monstera deliciosa, but adansonii has more delicate, trailing stems and smaller, thinner leaves.

  • You can also train it to climb if you prefer a vertical look – it’s a flexible, fun plant to grow.

FAQs

Is it pet safe?
No – Monstera adansonii is toxic to pets if ingested, so best kept out of reach of curious cats and dogs.

How often should I feed it?
Once a month in spring and summer is ideal. We recommend our Organic Vegan Plant Food – it’s made exclusively for us and packed with everything your plant needs to thrive.

Can I put it outside?
Only in summer and only if it’s warm, sheltered, and shady. This is a jungle plant, not a fan of cold drafts or harsh sun.

Is this plant easy to look after?
Yes – it’s one of the easiest trailing houseplants out there and very forgiving if you forget to water now and then.

Top notch mount with high build quality
I love it when I take a chance and spend some extra money hoping for a quality product - and it actually pans out. I bought this for my 2nd gen Toyota Tacoma (2014). The install was fast. Instructions were clear. The mount is ROCK solid and has two points of articulation so I can position my phone well. I couldn't ask for a better product. The price I paid was a little steep for a mount, but if you demand quality then look no further.
