Description

If there is one houseplant that has inspired generation after generation of indoor gardeners, then it has to be the ever popular (and easy to grow) Swiss Cheese Plant, and this new form, is much more compact and even more undemanding!

With glossy, rich green leaves laves with irregular holes, plants will trail gently over their pot if left untrained or can be treated as a climber and tied to a support.

Like its bigger cousin, it's easy to grow, and gives instant impact wherever it's placed, and everyone can benefit from the improvement to health and wellbeing that plants and gardening can bring.

The glossy, tropical leaves of the Monkey Leaf are what makes this plant a star, easily adding a lush, exotic feel to any room.

Young leaves are solid, and as the plant matures, they begin to show the characteristic holes which make the leaf resemble a mask. Naturally a lazy climber, your plant will enjoy the support of a moss pole (not supplied) where you can push its aerial roots into the moss as they develop, helping to support it as it grows.

A native of tropical rainforests, Monstera is a houseplant that's easy to keep happy - we recommend that you place it in bright but not direct sunlight indoors and mist the leaves regularly to provide humidity - plus they love a bit of a leaf-wipe now and again to remove dust and restore that glossy sheen.

Supplied as an established plant in a 12cm pot, eventually reaching just H1m x W0.4m

As with all houseplants, keep away from children and pets and take care when handling.

Note Decorative pot in images is for display purposes only and is not supplied.

Top Tips
Best grown in bright light otherwise growth will be spindly and new leaves will lose their holes.
Care Information
  • Best grown in indirect sunlight in an average room temperature - avoid large temperature fluctuations.
  • Water regularly and allow the soil to dry a bit between watering.
  • Feed once a month with a general-purpose liquid houseplant feed.
  • Mist leaves to maintain humidity.
  • Clean leaves regularly with a damp cloth.
  • Do not place in direct sunlight, as this will scorch and yellow the leaves.
  • As with all houseplants, keep away from children and pets and take care when handling.
Delivery Information

Please allow us 3-5 working days to dispatch your order. Pre-ordered items will be sent as soon as possible after the date quoted and we'll generally ship your entire order with your pre-ordered items. When your order is dispatched, we'll send you another email with details of how to track it.

Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.

We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.

Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.

Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.

Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
