PRODUCT MEASUREMENT

GENERAL INFORMATION

Monstera deliciosa, the Swiss cheese plant, is a species of flowering plant native to tropical forests of southern Mexico, south to Panama.
It has been introduced to many tropical areas and has become a mildly invasive species in Hawaii, Seychelles, Ascension Island, and the Society Islands.
It’s extremely common for monsteras to be confused with split-leaf philodendron, particularly in less mature plants.
Though the two are related (they’re part of the same plant family), an easy way to tell these plants apart is to look at the leaves: split-leaf philodendrons have perforated leaves but lack holes.

SOIL REQUIREMENT

Plant it in a pot with drainage holes using a standard potting soil that contains peat.
Peat helps to trap moisture without becoming waterlogged.

FEEDING/FERTILIZER REQUIREMENT

For best results, feed your plant once a month throughout the spring and summer.
A little bit of food will go a long way to encourage growth and root health.

LIGHT REQUIREMENT

Put the plant near a window where it will receive bright, but indirect, sunlight.
Avoid strong, direct sunlight because it may burn the leaves.

WATER REQUIREMENT

When its soil becomes dry to a depth of 1-2”, water your monstera directly into the pot so as not to moisten foliage and just enough to keep the soil from completely drying out.
Don’t allow the pot to stand in water, as this will cause root rot.
