About Monstera adansonii

Name: Monstera adansonii
Common Name: Swiss Cheese Plant, Adanson's Monsteria, Monkey Mask Plant

Monstera adansonii, commonly known as the Swiss Cheese Plant or Adanson's Monstera, is a popular and attractive houseplant renowned for its unique foliage and easy care. This species belongs to the Araceae family and is native to the tropical rainforests of Central and South America, including countries like Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru.

Monstera adansonii is characterized by its distinctive heart-shaped leaves, which develop unique fenestrations (holes) as they mature, giving the plant its "Swiss cheese" appearance. The leaves are typically deep green, glossy, and can grow up to 30 cm (12 inches) in length. The plant has a vining or climbing growth habit, making it ideal for hanging baskets, trellises, or as a trailing plant in a pot.

In its natural habitat, Monstera adansonii grows as an epiphyte, meaning it climbs trees and other structures to reach light. As a houseplant, it can be grown in a container or as a climbing vine with proper support.

Cultivation & Care Guide

Cultivation of Monstera adansonii

Conditions:

  1. Light: Monstera adansonii thrives in bright, indirect light. It can tolerate lower light conditions but may not develop as many fenestrations. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves.
  2. Temperature: This plant prefers warm temperatures and thrives in USDA hardiness zones 10-12. It should be kept in temperatures between 18-27 °C (65-80 °F) and protected from cold drafts or temperatures below 10 °C (50 °F).
  3. Soil: Monstera adansonii prefers a well-draining, organic potting mix. A mix designed for houseplants or a blend of peat, perlite, and pine bark works well to provide adequate drainage and aeration.
  4. Water: Water the plant when the top 1-2 inches of soil are dry. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so ensure that the soil is well-drained and allow excess water to escape through the drainage holes.

Planting and Care:

  1. Planting: Plant Monstera adansonii in a container with good drainage. Use a rich, well-draining potting mix, and ensure the pot has drainage holes to prevent waterlogging.
  2. Fertilization: Feed the plant with a balanced, liquid fertilizer every 1-2 months during the growing season (spring and summer). Reduce feeding during the fall and winter months when the plant’s growth slows.
  3. Maintenance: Monstera adansonii is relatively low-maintenance. Regularly dust the leaves to keep them clean and allow the plant to photosynthesize efficiently. Prune any yellow or damaged leaves to maintain a healthy appearance.

Growing from Cuttings

  1. Cutting Preparation: Take a cutting from a healthy plant with at least one node (the area where leaves and roots grow) and a few leaves. Use a clean, sharp knife or scissors to make the cut.
  2. Propagation: Place the cutting in a glass of water or directly into a pot with a well-draining potting mix. If using water, change the water every few days and wait for roots to form before transplanting.
  3. Germination Conditions: Place the cutting in a warm, bright location but out of direct sunlight. Rooting can take several weeks to a couple of months.
  4. Care for New Plants: Once the cutting has developed a sufficient root system, transplant it into a pot with well-draining soil. Continue to care for it as you would a mature Monstera adansonii, providing bright, indirect light and regular watering.

Monstera adansonii is a stylish and resilient plant that adds a touch of tropical flair to any indoor space. Its distinctive foliage and adaptable nature make it a favorite among houseplant enthusiasts.

Pricey but works
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: SPF 100
It works well and is definitely worth it, but it's pretty small and pricey for what you get.

Works great, TSA compliant!
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: SPF 100
I LOVE spf 100, I know people like to say anything above 30 or whatever is pointless but let me say, when I use spf 100 I don't tan at all (and I DON'T want to tan, I'm Asian and the kind of person who walks outside for 5 minutes and I'm visibly slightly darker) and my husband is white and burns if out in the sun too much but this stuff not only prevented burn but I think also prevented tan for him too 🤷🏻‍♀️ I think these bottles are also awesome to be able to fly with too, we bought a few for our Punta Cana trip and we didn't tan or burn, and we only used a little over one bottle for 5 days (we only wore when we'd be out in direct sun a few hours each day, and my outfits didn't show a LOT of skin so less surface area). I hope this company continues selling this product, it'll always be my go to for travel sun screen now :)

Feels great on skin, but wish it was a larger amount.
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: SPF 100
I haven’t tried this in the sun yet, so I can’t attest to how it works as intended, but so far I have tried it on my skin to see if it is as thick and white as others. It goes on very easy and smooth. I do not see a noticeable white cast and it soaks into the skin quickly. I am hoping it works well in the sun because I will repurchase. I just wish it was a larger amount.
