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.

Styling Tip

Showcase Monstera adansonii in a hanging planter, trailing elegantly from a high shelf, or train it up a moss pole for a structured, vertical look. Its distinctive leaves add texture and movement to any room, pairing beautifully with other tropical favourites like Philodendron ‘Brasil’, Epipremnum ‘Marble Queen’, or Ficus ‘Altissima’. Perfect for bright living spaces, bedrooms, or conservatories, the Swiss Cheese Vine brings a lush, jungle-inspired atmosphere wherever it grows.

    Helped calm my damaged skin barrier, but expect stinging on very raw skin
    Style: Restorative Protective Cream-1.3 Fl Oz
    I bought this because I severely damaged my skin barrier and needed something gentle that would help my skin calm down and heal. My skin was extremely sensitive, raw, irritated, tight, and honestly uncomfortable even with water touching it. This did help, but I do want to mention that if your skin is VERY damaged or raw, there can be some stinging at first. I experienced that myself during the first few applications. The stinging didn’t last long for me, but I think it’s important to mention because people with damaged barriers are usually desperate for relief and can panic when products sting. What ended up helping me most was using this as part of a simple barrier repair routine instead of using it alone. What I personally did: * Wet my face first with either water or Avène Thermal Spring Water so my skin was damp but not soaking wet * Applied the Avène Cicalfate onto the damp skin * At night, I sealed everything in with CeraVe Healing Ointment (Aquaphor would probably work too) I repeated this every night before bed and sometimes during the day if I was staying home. If I was leaving the house during the day, I would do the same steps but use sunscreen instead of sealing with ointment. I honestly think sunscreen is extremely important when your skin barrier is damaged and trying to heal because irritated skin feels even more sensitive when exposed to sunlight. I used this day and night, very easy to use, and didn’t experience breakouts from it. The texture is thick but comforting once applied, especially when your skin feels dry and stripped. Overall, I would buy this again. I don’t think it’s some overnight miracle product, but it genuinely helped my skin calm down and recover when my barrier was damaged. I personally didn’t notice any strong fragrance, which I appreciated since my skin was already extremely irritated. I also like how versatile this product is. Even though I originally bought it for barrier damage, I can see why people use it for irritation from retinol, over-exfoliating, dry patches, or skin that just feels compromised in general.

    Holy Grail of Moisturizers
    Style: Restorative Protective Cream-3.3 Fl Oz
    I bought this after hearing a dermatologist on Instagram rave about this cream and now I see why. As someone who suffers from pretty severe eczema this is my go to holy grail for flair ups. Perfect for sensitive skin and can be used daily. It is very thick so provides a thick layer of moisture on your skin. I will say I have bought 2 sizes in this and the smaller size (1.3fl oz) did separate and had a liquid part that would come out. I have bought numerous tubes of the larger size (3.3fl oz) and never had an issue with separation with the larger size. I’m learning as I get older that more expensive does not mean better quality skincare. This is one that is not only affordable, but will also give you noticeable results. I have everyone in my whole family using this product!

    GREAT STUFF!!!
    THIS STUFF IS AMAZING!!! It really does have the consistency of a light mousse, and it goes on so evenly! I have combination skin that changes in dryness and oiliness through the month and by season, but this gives very consistent coverage that doesn't make me break out! It gives my face a matte appearance (but not flat in color) and blends well with my other make up (blush, bronzer, etc.). Great for hiding bumps, acne, and redness too! It also doesn't crease up under my eyes. I am usually the lightest or next to lightest shade in foundations (neutral undertones), and when I first squeezed some out of the tube I thought it would be way too dark/tan for me, but it matches my skin perfectly! The coverage lasts all day for me without reapplication.

    "Blur" is A Good Word For This great Product
    This is one of the best BB's I have ever used. I have a strange combination of oily skin that is dry in other areas and also very sensitive. I need something that moisturizes but keeps oil at bay at the same time. SPF is essential and non irritating to my skin and especially my eyes. Kind of hard to find. PROS: All of the above was met and it creates a flawless finish. The word "blur" aptly describes the look. I took a picture so you can see the color and how it looks when applied to my hand. Just flawless! Controls oil Does not settle into the fine lines around the mouth and eyes. CONS: Has a yellow undertone. I have fair skin with a warm undertone so I can wear this, but others may not be able to.

    Awesome product... however...
    This stuff is great, it's enough coverage to just throw it on and go. It's so light, and definitely reduces oil, I've only had it for 2 days so I can't say whether or not it makes my skin breakout. But typically la Roche products are awesome on my sensitive combo skin The only drawback to this product is the fair tone, is suuuppper light. I am blonde haired light skin, green eyed, sorta freckley person. I burn and then tan sorta well but never dark. And the fair/light color ghosts me out quite a bit. But I'm afraid the darker color will be too yellow. I just bought the darker tone. I'll probably mix them. Contouring the fair tone helps the wash out, but for me, that's not the point of a BB. I just want minimal coverage so I can quickly put it on and not worry about anything. I think I like the color of the tinted mineral sunscreen better. We'll see about the other tone. Maybe the fair tone will work better for me in the winter. Over all it's great but I spent $60 on BB cream which is a little outrageous.
