What happens when a gardener gets a Swiss Cheese? Swiss Cheese Plant!

🌿 Monstera x adansonii - Baby Swiss Cheese Plant - is an unusual form of Monstera with leaves that have many holes, much bigger than those in Swiss Cheese!

🌿 Makes an interesting indoor specimen, an eye stopper.

🌿 Shade lover, but can take some semi-shade too.

🌿 Can be grown outdoors in warmer climates and climbs trees or walls wherever you need a green wall.

🌿 Grows fast, very undemanding plant. Perfect when you need to fill space with greenery quickly.
