Cold Weather Protection

How to take care of Monstera Adansonii

Sun: Indirect

Monstera Adansonii should not be in a position to see the sun directly, although early morning or late evening sun is fine. Filtered sunlight through a sheer curtain is best and most homes are comprised primarily of indirect sunlight. The best spot for them is where they do not see the sun during the majority of the day but still get bright, indirect light.

Light: Medium - Bright

Monstera Adansonii will thrive in bright light, but also can tolerate medium light. A good medium-light place in your home would be in the middle of a room that has a regular size window. They can be placed anywhere between the middle of the room and the window. Remember that plants will grow based on how much light they receive.

Water: When mostly dry

Monstera Adansonii likes the soil to be relatively dry before the next watering. That usually takes about 2 weeks in an average home environment. It will vary depending on the time of year, your environment and lighting conditions, but for them, it's always safer to underwater or water when you see signs of lack of water (i.e. droopy, floppy, or soft leaves). Water more often in the warmer months.

Humidity: Medium

Monstera Adansonii will do well in average humidity environments but will appreciate a little bit of humidity if provided, give them a mist daily or get a humidifier.

Pet Caution

Monstera Adansonii is moderately toxic and can cause some adverse reactions when ingested so it is best to not let your pets eat it, which we advise for all plants in general. The severity of the reaction will depend on how much of the plant is ingested but, if you know your pet typically does not eat your plants, this plant will be suitable for your home.

Plant Story

Introducing the Monstera Adansonii, a delightful houseplant that showcases the beauty of embracing our unique features and adapting to various environments.

The Monstera Adansonii, also known as the Swiss Cheese Vine, features delicate leaves adorned with numerous fenestrations. These captivating holes add character to the plant, inspiring us to embrace our uniqueness and be adaptable in our surroundings.

To help your Monstera Adansonii flourish, provide it with bright, indirect light. By offering the right environment and care, you'll witness its impressive growth and transformation, just as we do in our own lives.

When it comes to watering, Monstera Adansonii prefers to let its soil dry out almost completely between waterings. As you care for your plant, remember that sometimes less is more, both in plant care and in life!

As your Monstera Adansonii matures, it'll start to vine and climb. Support it with a moss pole, and let its aerial roots anchor to the pole or hang freely. Like a true companion, the Monstera Adansonii is there to climb with you, one leaf at a time.

Welcome the Monstera Adansonii into your home, and let it inspire you with its symbolism of uniqueness, adaptability, and growth. It's not just a plant; it's a powerful reminder to embrace our own distinct qualities and to find beauty in our ability to adapt and thrive in various environments.
