MONSTERA – MONKEY

Monstera adansonii, “Swiss Cheese Vine”, the “Monkey Mask Plant” or sometimes simply known as “Five Holes Plant”, is a reasonably modern and popular houseplant that does well indoors. Monstera adansonii is easy to care for so long as it has moist, warm conditions. The plant has a vining habit and often grows entwined in and around itself, with new leaves and vines sometimes growing through the holes in existing leaves. This can lead to leaves tearing which gives the plant a shabby chic rather that pristine appeal. Monstera grow best in bright, indirect light, but are hardy enough to tolerate moderate shade. Avoid direct sunlight however, as this may burn or bleach the leaves.
