Monstera adansonii, commonly known as the Swiss Cheese Vine, is a much-loved tropical climber admired for its unique, perforated leaves and easy-going nature. A member of the Araceae family and native to the rainforests of Central and South America, this species embodies the wild, untamed beauty of the jungle while remaining compact and manageable indoors.

Its heart-shaped leaves are deep green and adorned with natural oval-shaped holes (fenestrations), giving the plant its iconic “Swiss cheese” appearance. As the plant matures, the leaves become larger and more intricately perforated, creating a delicate yet dramatic texture. Monstera adansonii is both a climber and trailer, making it perfect for hanging baskets, tall shelves, or trained up a moss pole for a lush, vertical statement.

Lively, tropical, and wonderfully versatile, the Swiss Cheese Vine brings instant jungle charm to any home — a true favourite among plant enthusiasts and interior designers alike.


Monstera adansonii – Care Guide

Light

Thrives in bright, indirect light. Too much direct sunlight can scorch its delicate leaves, while too little light may slow growth and reduce leaf perforation. East- or north-facing windows are ideal, or filtered light through sheer curtains in brighter rooms.

Watering

Keep the soil lightly moist but never soggy. Water when the top 2–3 cm of soil feels dry. In winter, reduce watering slightly while maintaining gentle moisture. Always ensure good drainage to prevent root rot — Monstera adansonii prefers to dry out a little between waterings.

Temperature and Humidity

Temperature: Prefers warmth between 18–28 °C; avoid cold drafts and temperatures below 15 °C.
Humidity: High humidity (60–80%) encourages healthy growth and glossy foliage. Mist regularly, use a humidifier, or group with other tropical plants to create a humid environment.

Soil and Potting

Use a rich, airy, and well-draining mix — compost combined with perlite, orchid bark, and coco coir works perfectly. This mimics its natural epiphytic conditions, providing aeration while retaining gentle moisture. Repot every 1–2 years in spring to refresh nutrients and promote strong root growth.

Feeding

Feed every 4–6 weeks in spring and summer with a diluted, balanced liquid fertiliser. Avoid over-fertilising, which can cause leaf burn or salt build-up. Suspend feeding in autumn and winter.

Pruning and Maintenance

Prune to control length and encourage bushier growth. Cuttings root easily in water or moist soil, making propagation simple. Wipe the leaves occasionally with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and enhance their natural gloss. Rotate the plant occasionally for even light exposure and balanced growth.

Growth and Maturity

A moderately fast grower, Monstera adansonii can reach 1.5–2 metres indoors when supported. Its vining habit allows it to climb or trail, producing larger and more fenestrated leaves as it matures. With the right care, it develops into a lush, cascading feature that instantly transforms interiors.

Common Issues

  • Yellow leaves: Overwatering or poor drainage.

  • Brown edges: Low humidity or inconsistent watering.

  • Sparse growth: Insufficient light.

  • Pests: Occasionally affected by thrips or spider mites — treat with neem oil and maintain humidity.


Background and Benefits

Native to the humid tropical forests of Central and South America, Monstera adansonii grows as an epiphyte, climbing trees in search of dappled light and absorbing moisture from the air. Its natural fenestrations allow wind and light to pass through the leaves in the dense rainforest canopy — an adaptation that also makes it highly decorative in indoor spaces.

Like other Monsteras, it’s an excellent natural air purifier, filtering toxins and improving indoor air quality. Symbolically, its perforated leaves represent adaptability and growth — a reminder of resilience and flexibility in changing environments.

Perfect for bright living spaces, bedrooms, or conservatories, the Swiss Cheese Vine brings a lush, jungle-inspired atmosphere wherever it grows.

    The Goto Resource for every Leader
    Format: Kindle
    The title says it all — Who Not How — and the content brings it to life. At its core, this book reminds us that our greatest calling is rooted in relationships. It’s also where our greatest assets are found. We don’t need to do everything ourselves—we need Whos in our lives, and we need to be a Who in the lives of others. This is a must-have resource for every leader.

    An important book to read, and whose concepts MUSTbe put into practice
    Format: Kindle
    As an admirer of the work that Dan Sullivan and Benjamin Hardy have done individually, I was sure that a collaboration, two “whos” getting together, would be a good hit. And a good it it is! The issue with these kind of books is what happens immediately after one has finished reading them. The issue is to put things into practice, and change the way we do things. This requires thinking, and thinking is hard, and in most cases we do NOT dedicate time to thinking, so the concepts slide into the past, and no change happens. Time for me, and everyone, to change this default state. This review is just the start of a written reflection, a “thinking on paper” exercise, like my friend and great thinker Jean Moroney calls it. For me, it’s time to shift to my journal. For you, dear readers, it’s time to get this book and read it. Make Dan and Ben your “whos”. Now.

    If you’re a solo, Who Not How is a must-read
    Format: Kindle
    If you’re starting out as a solo, whether you’re a writer a lawyer a consultant, or whatever, Who Not How may be the most important book you can read if you want to have both a successful business and a successful life. Here’s why I think that’s true. Most people who go solo don’t start their business with bales of venture capital. Instead, we fund those first lean weeks or years with credit cards, second mortgages, and the forbearance of our friends. We’re lean by necessity. Naturally, in the beginning, we do just about everything ourselves. That’s good and necessary, but it can create a bad habit that’s reinforced by society. American culture lauds individual achievement. In school, we’re graded individually. The virtue of self-reliance is high on our list. The problem is that to grow and prosper we need to break that habit of “self-reliance at any price” and quit trying to do it all. When we face a new challenge, the need for a new website, for example, we naturally ask, “how can I do this?” We spend time climbing a learning curve to get to an acceptable level of performance. Asking, “who could help me with this” or who can do this for me” can make our businesses more successful and our life more satisfying. Let me share two examples from my business. I have a virtual assistant. Her name is Brenda, and she does a variety of administrative tasks that I used to do myself. She does them better, more consistently, and more efficiently than I would. And the fact that she does them frees me up to do the things I do best and contribute most to the success of my business. Another example. For years I did my bookkeeping. I learned bookkeeping for the first job I got after I left the Marines. I did OK with a paper-based system. But I decided that I wanted to take advantage of what technology had made possible, so I bought QuickBooks. First, I tried to master it. The bookkeeping part wasn’t a problem. But learning about and implementing the automated functions of the program frustrated me.  When I realized what was happening, I engaged a QuickBooks consultant to help me set the program up and review my books every quarter. The result: I used to spend frustrating hours not getting things quite right. Now, I spend about 15 minutes a day and an hour at the end of the month on my accounting. Both Brenda and my QuickBooks consultant do things that I’m capable of. But they do them better, and, because they do them, I have more time and bandwidth to spend on coaching people as they write their books. That’s what I’m good at and what I get paid for. And using others for those tasks frees up time for me to spend on recreation, recovery, and relationships. Those things make life sweet. If you’re a solo, that’s why you should buy Who Not How, read it, and put it to work. I suggest you buy the audio version, even if you also buy a print or ebook version. The audio version has some interviews with Dan Sullivan that don’t appear in the other versions. They will add value to your experience.  In a Nutshell If you’re a solo, buy Who Not How: The Formula to Achieve Bigger Goals Through Accelerating Teamwork by Dan Sullivan and Benjamin Hardy Then read it and put the book’s lessons to work.

    A soulful journey that blends adventure with spiritual wisdom
    This book is part travelogue, part spiritual quest, and it kept me intrigued from start to finish. Paulo Coelho takes you along on his pilgrimage through Spain’s Camino de Santiago, sharing not only the physical challenges of the journey but also the inner lessons about faith, discipline, and self-discovery. The writing is simple yet thought-provoking, with moments that feel both mystical and deeply human. I found myself pausing often to reflect on his insights, this isn’t a quick read but one to savor slowly. The paperback is a nice, portable size with clear print, making it easy to take along or mark favorite passages. For anyone interested in spiritual growth, adventure, or reflective storytelling, this book feels both timeless and inspiring. Pro Tip: Keep a journal nearby, so many passages spark personal reflection that you’ll want to write down your own thoughts as you read.
