Monstera (Swiss Cheese Plants)

Monstera plants, also called Swiss Cheese Plants, give you large leaves with clean splits and steady growth. You get a bold look that suits living rooms, offices, and bright corners. Place your Monstera in bright, indirect light. Let the top of the soil dry before you water again. Support tall stems with a moss pole. Trim any long shoots to keep the shape neat. Wipe the leaves when dust builds so the plant uses light well.

You can place Monstera outside in the UK during warm summer months. Choose light shade. The broad leaves give shelter to small insects. These insects support local birds. Bring the plant back inside when nights fall near 12°C.

Monstera suits you if you want strong structure and simple care. You get clear lines, quick growth, and a tidy look that fits busy homes.
