Swiss Cheese Plant

Description

The Swiss Cheese Plant, also known as Monstera, is a popular houseplant that is native to the tropical rainforests of Central and South America. It is a climbing plant that can grow up to 20 meters in height in its natural habitat, but when grown indoors, it typically reaches a height of 40-120cm. The plant is characterized by its large, glossy, heart-shaped leaves that have distinctive holes and splits, giving it the appearance of Swiss cheese. The leaves can grow up to 90cm in length and 75cm in width, making it a striking addition to any room. The Swiss Cheese Plant is relatively easy to care for and can thrive in a variety of lighting conditions, from bright, indirect light to low light. It prefers well-draining soil and should be watered when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch. It is also important to mist the leaves regularly to maintain humidity levels. In addition to its aesthetic appeal, the Swiss Cheese Plant has been shown to improve air quality by removing toxins from the air.
