Monstera Deliciosa

Gap plant

An exceptionally striking leaf plant with great adaptability. With a strong air-purifying effect, one of the most ideal houseplants.

The nickname Swiss Cheese plant, or Gap Plant, comes from the holes in the dark green leaves: these ensure that even the leaves at the bottom of the plant get enough light. The more light, the faster this plant grows. Avoid direct sunlight, otherwise the leaves will burn.

The Monstera Deliciosa is an easy houseplant that also grows well in partial shade. A light, moist position at 18 to 25°C is ideal. Water generously in summer, with lukewarm water. Water less in winter.

Semi-shade or a light, moist site without direct sunlight. 18 to 25°C is ideal.
