Swiss Cheese Plant, Monkey Mask Plant, and Monstera adansonii are all names for this popular trailing or climbing vine. The holes in the leaves are purposeful- they're called fenestrations! While scientists aren't 100% sure why some plants have fenestrations, there are theories about rain getting to roots and lessening risk of tears from the wind. Place your monstera where it will receive moderate to bright light and water when the soil is 50-75% dry. These plants can tolerate lower light levels, but if you notice the vines getting longer before putting on a new leaf, consider moving your plant to a brighter area.

Monstera spp., like other plants in the Araceae family, contain insoluble calcium oxalates, which can cause oral and GI irritation, as well as other symptoms. Because of this, they are not considered pet safe when it comes to our furry friends. If you were thinking of including it in a tropical enclosure, don't let that stop you! Even if your reptile takes a chomp out of the vine, they have different tolerances than our furry friends. Treat this like a pothos, where it can be allowed to climb or trail within the enclosure. 

Plants will be shipped bare root and are suitable for the size pot chosen. Photos are representative and some variation should be expected.
