- Grown. packaged and shipped exclusively by Wekiva Foliage. Split-leaf philodendron. Swiss cheese plant. or windowleaf (Monstera deliciosa) is a tropical plant native to rainforests of Central America from southern Mexico to Panama. and commonly grown as a foliage houseplant.
- It has glossy. heart-shaped or rounded leathery leaves that develop deep clefts and oblong perforations as they grow older. The leaves may be as much as 18wide on foot-long leafstalks.
- As a houseplant. split-leaf philodendron does best in bright light in summer and direct sun in winter. It can be grown under florescent light. but will not develop the leaf perforations when light is inadequate.
- It prefers warm room temperature and medium to high humidity. but is fairly tolerant of a wide range of conditions once acclimated. Plants do not grow below 50ºF. however. and frost will kill them.
- Find a balance between sun and shade. If Monstera is given too much sun. the leaves will yellow. If it left in the dark. the plant will exhibit something called negative phototropism. where new leaves grow towards the dark. rather than the light.
