Also known as the Swiss Cheese Plant, the Monstera’s beautiful deep green-colored leaves are perfect for creating an instant tropical rainforest feeling.

Pot Design & Size
At Léon & George we pay special attention to detail. Our staging kit includes stabilized natural lichen for a bright finish.
We also know that finding the right watering routine can be difficult and unlike the last piece of furniture you bought, a live plant requires special attention.
That's why your plant comes with a simple and stylish watering indicator that tells you when it's time to water your plant, as well as clay balls and a matching saucer to retain moisture and limit the risk of overwatering.
Designed and tested with research institutes and agronomists, this tool works without batteries and uses a simple color scale: blue = enough water, white = it may be time to water.

Care Essentials

Watering
Approximately 0.75 à 1 liter of water once a week in summer, every 10 days to 2 weeks in winter.
Care Guide
For watering, use water at room temperature and whose chlorine has evaporated. Let the soil dry between 2 waterings. Remove the decorative moss beforehand to avoid wetting it. Water in 2 times, spaced about 10 minutes apart, so that the soil absorbs the water well. Spray the foliage of your plant regularly to increase the humidity level. Clean the foliage once a month with a soft cloth and diluted black soap. Rotate the pot a quarter circle at this time to promote smooth growth. Apply suitable fertilizer once a month from March to September.

Featured Questions
Is Monstera Deliciosa easy to care for?
Monstera Deliciosa is a fairly easy-care, hardy houseplant. Keep watering to a moderate level. You can leave the substrate to dry on the surface between waterings. It will do very well if you forget to water it from time to time. However, it fears sunburn, excess water and dry air. Remember to spray it regularly.
Is Monstera Deliciosa prone to disease and parasites?
If the air is too dry, red spider mites, mealybugs or thrips may appear. In this case, remove the pests with Super Neem Oil solution and a soft cloth, and spray the foliage more regularly to increase atmospheric humidity. Black spots on foliage can be a sign of fungus infestation. Make sure you don't over-water your plant and treat it with the Essential Plant Repair Care Pack.
Does Monstera Deliciosa produce flowers and fruit?
In its natural habitat, this philodendron produces beautiful, large white flowers that give way to a similar fruit called Ceriman. This fruit is edible and delicious. However, it's highly unlikely that you'll see your Monstera flowering at home.
Is Monstera Deliciosa toxic or poisonous to humans or pets?
Monstera Deliciosa is considered toxic. Consumption can cause illness.
How big can a Monstera Deliciosa grow?
The Monstera Deliciosa can grow up to three meters tall indoors.
How much light does a Monstera need?
Monstera plants, also known as Swiss cheese plants, prefer bright, indirect light. They can tolerate low light conditions but may grow slower and have fewer leaves in these conditions. In general, it is best to provide Monstera plants with moderate to bright indirect light, such as what they would receive in a room with an east, west, or south-facing window.
It's essential to avoid placing Monstera plants in direct sunlight, as this can cause the leaves to turn yellow or burn. It's also a good idea to rotate the plant occasionally to ensure that all parts receive an equal amount of light.
If you are unsure if your Monstera plant is getting enough light, you can check the leaves for signs of stress. Healthy Monstera leaves should be bright green and perky. If the leaves are yellowing or drooping, this may indicate that the plant is not getting enough light.
Is the Monstera Deliciosa a Philodendron?
Monstera Deliciosa is often called a False Philodendron. But it's really a Philodendron. Its name is Philodendron Pertusum, also known as split-leaf Philodendron.
What is the 30-day plant guarantee all about?
We want to ensure that everyone has a successful experience with their plants. Our plants are all easy to care for and come with our care instructions to guide you in their care. Even so, if your plant dies within the first 30 days of receipt, we will replace it!
