Adansonii, or Swiss Cheese Vine, is an evergreen foliage plant native to Central and South America. This variety is the classic trailing or vining Monstera with glossy, heart-shaped, fenestrated foliage that reaches 3-8' indoors or up to 13' in tropical regions. In their native habitat, Monestera plants vine up trees with air roots and do well growing up a spaghnum-wrapped stake indoors or vining on an arbor or tree outdoors in zones 10-12. This plant flourishes in bright indirect light with minimal water and high humidity, offering a dramatic, exotic flair to houseplant collections. For a variety with more fenestration, try growing Esqueleto.
Sell Adansonii to customers looking for an impressive houseplant. This plant offers bold foliage, a climbing habit, low-maintenance care, and fast growth. Evergreen in zones 10-12, this plant excels in any brightly lit, warm spot with high humidity.

1. Grow this plant in loose, well-draining soil - an aroid or orchid mix with charcoal, perlite, peat moss, and bark works best. Bagged potting soil will also work if it doesn't have water-retaining qualities.
2. Water deeply when the soil is almost dry. In winter, wait to water until the soil is dry. Provide high humidity with a pebble tray, spray-mist, or a humidifier. This plant benefits from distilled or filtered water.
3. Repot to a container 2-3" larger in diameter in spring. Maintain temperatures of 65-85 degrees and place this plant where it will receive bright, indirect light. It can stand some direct sunlight with increased water. Provide a stake in the container for the vine to climb.
For best results with Adansonii, grow one rooted plug per 6- or 10-inch container. Use well-drained soil suitable for aroid plants; a combination of charcoal, perlite, peat moss, and bark works best. Provide temperatures between 65-85 degrees and 60% humidity. Feed moderately with a 3-1-2 fertilizer. Water when the soil is dry. Watch for powdery mildew, root rot, and blight.
This plant is grown for its dramatic foliage.
This plant doesn't require pinching.
Space containers for adequate airflow and sunlight penetration around the base and foliage of each plant.
This plant doesn't require PGRs. Provide adequate bright light.
This plant isn't prone to pests.
Watch for signs of powdery mildew, root rot, and blight. Take preventative measures in your commercial greenhouse, including using sanitary tools, growing media, and containers; watering at the base of each plant and allowing the soil to dry between waterings; and providing good airflow and adequate spacing.
Blight is a fungal disease that causes wilting, dark spots on foliage, and plant death. Remove and destroy infected plants, practicing good sanitization in the greenhouse. Apply copper-based fungicides as needed according to label instructions.
Powdery Mildew is a fungal disease that thrives in humid conditions, appearing as a white or gray coating on foliage and flowers. Provide good airflow in your greenhouse. We recommend horizontal airflow fans to help control humidity levels alongside a dehumidifier or manual venting. Remove and destroy infected plants and apply fungicides as needed or preventatively. Look for the active ingredients myclobutanil, trifloxystrobin, or potassium bicarbonate to combat Powdery Mildew threatening your seedling plugs.
Root Rot occurs in poorly drained or overly wet soil, which becomes the host for several types of fungi. It causes stunted growth, wilting, and root system decay. Prevention is the best treatment, and you will avoid most root rot problems by using clean, well-draining media, appropriate containers, and good watering practices for finishing seedling plugs. Inspect plants for signs of disease regularly. Repot infected plants in well-draining soil, adjust your watering schedule, provide better airflow, and use a fungicide if needed.
We recommend planting one rooted plug per 6- or 10-inch container. Use well-drained and well-aerated soil and center the ellepot in the container.
