The Iconic Tropical Statement Plant with Dramatic Split Leaves

Monstera deliciosa, commonly known as the Split-Leaf Philodendron, is one of the most recognizable and beloved houseplants in the world. Its large, glossy green leaves develop dramatic natural splits—called fenestrations—creating a bold, sculptural look that instantly transforms any interior space.

Often nicknamed the “Swiss Cheese Plant,” this name more accurately applies to Monstera adansonii, which has smaller leaves with oval holes. Monstera deliciosa, however, is prized for its oversized foliage and architectural presence.

Low Maintenance, High Impact

This fast-growing tropical plant thrives with minimal care, making it perfect for both beginners and experienced collectors. With proper light and watering, Monstera deliciosa produces increasingly large, deeply split leaves that create a lush, jungle-inspired focal point.

Plant Profile

  • Botanical Name: Monstera deliciosa
  • Pronunciation: mon-STER-ah de-lis-ee-OH-sah
  • Common Names: Monstera, Split-Leaf Philodendron
  • Native Range: Tropical rainforests of Mexico and Panama
  • Growth Habit: Climbing aroid; benefits from a moss pole or support

Ed’s Care Guide

Care Level: Easy

Light: Thrives in medium to bright indirect light. Tolerates lower light but may produce fewer splits.

Water: Water thoroughly when the top 1–2 inches of soil are dry. Avoid consistently soggy soil.

Humidity: Prefers moderate to high humidity but adapts well to average indoor conditions.

Temperature: 65–85°F (18–29°C)

Feeding: Fertilize every 2–4 weeks during spring and summer for vigorous growth.

Pruning: Remove yellowing leaves and trim leggy growth to maintain shape.

Propagation: Easily propagated through stem cuttings with a node.

Common Pests: Spider mites and root rot from overwatering.

Toxicity: Toxic to pets and humans if ingested.

Why Monstera Leaves Split

The iconic splits and holes are believed to help light pass through the canopy and allow strong tropical winds to move through the plant without damaging large leaves. This functional adaptation is what gives Monstera deliciosa its unmistakable tropical charm.

A Tropical Classic for Modern Spaces

Whether styled as a tabletop accent or trained into a dramatic floor plant, Monstera deliciosa adds instant character to living rooms, bedrooms, and office spaces. Its bold foliage and easy-care nature make it a timeless favorite for creating a lush indoor jungle.

Hot hot hot. Side sleepers will hate it
At first touch, these are the coldest pillowcases I own … but only for seconds. Once you actually lay on them, within seconds they adjust to your body temp, the heat feels trapped, my head begins to feel hotter than before I laid down - which has in turn caused me loathe these pillow cases. I hate that I have missed the return window. Would never buy again, would never recommend. My satin ones aren’t even this hot! I gave them the good ole 30-day try. Side sleepers - if you are like me and sleep on your side with arm tucked under pillow - flipping this pillow over in hopes of a cold side - forget it, it’s already hot from your arm.

Nice but dissapointing
So it sometimes stays cool but if it’s under a blanket and you have your body on it at all it will get warm but the spots you don’t use will get cool sometimes. I am very disappointed in the material though because it’s like my dry skin scratched the pillow case all over which makes me question it and I don’t think I would buy again.
