Looking for something a little wild and wonderful? The Monstera adansonii, often called the Swiss Cheese Plant thanks to its striking hole-filled leaves, brings a little jungle magic into any space. Its trailing emerald-green foliage spills beautifully from a hanging pot, creating an effortless, tropical vibe.

Size
W17cm x H50cm (including the trailing foliage). Supplied in a plastic nursery pot.

Native Habitat and Growth Patterns
Native to the humid rainforests of Central and South America, the Monstera adansonii thrives in dappled light beneath the forest canopy. It’s a natural climber, scrambling up trees in the wild, but indoors it’s just as happy trailing down from a shelf or hanging basket. This version is perfect if you're after a lush, trailing effect without the need for a moss pole.

Styling at Home
This plant is a brilliant choice for kitchens, bathrooms, or anywhere that gets bright, indirect light. Let it cascade from a high shelf or pop it in a hanging planter near a window – it adds instant texture and a bit of botanical drama. It’s the kind of plant that looks like you’ve made loads of effort (even when you haven’t).

Care Requirements
Monstera adansonii is easy-going and beginner-friendly. Think rainforest conditions – bright but indirect light, warmth, and a bit of humidity. A steamy bathroom or warm living room suits it well. Water when the top few inches of soil feel dry, and make sure it never sits in water. A little underwatering is better than too much love!

Top Tip
Avoid killing it with kindness. Most issues arise from overwatering – let the soil dry out between waterings, and it will reward you with lush growth.

Why Choose This Plant
This is one of those houseplants that always gets compliments. Its unusual leaves give it a unique look, and the trailing growth habit is perfect for styling small spaces without sacrificing greenery. It also makes a brilliant gift – and we’ll include a free handwritten card if you’re sending it as a present. No paperwork or prices, just a beautiful surprise.

Interesting Facts

  • The holes in the leaves are called fenestrations and help the plant survive in the wild by letting light through to the lower leaves.

  • It's often mistaken for the larger Monstera deliciosa, but adansonii has more delicate, trailing stems and smaller, thinner leaves.

  • You can also train it to climb if you prefer a vertical look – it’s a flexible, fun plant to grow.

FAQs

Is it pet safe?
No – Monstera adansonii is toxic to pets if ingested, so best kept out of reach of curious cats and dogs.

How often should I feed it?
Once a month in spring and summer is ideal. We recommend our Organic Vegan Plant Food – it’s made exclusively for us and packed with everything your plant needs to thrive.

Can I put it outside?
Only in summer and only if it’s warm, sheltered, and shady. This is a jungle plant, not a fan of cold drafts or harsh sun.

Is this plant easy to look after?
Yes – it’s one of the easiest trailing houseplants out there and very forgiving if you forget to water now and then.

A must have!!
Format: Kindle
As someone who was completely new to real estate, The Real Estate Investing and Rental Property 2-in-1 Boxset was exactly what I needed to get started. The first book walks you through the basics of real estate investing in 7 simple steps, making the entire process feel manageable, even if you don’t have much money or experience. It was reassuring to learn how regular people can get insanely wealthy through real estate, and the clear strategies for finding and financing your first deal were incredibly practical. The second book dives deeper into rental property investing, covering everything from finding the right property to managing short- and long-term rentals. I found the step-by-step guides on property management and scaling your portfolio especially helpful. The detailed sections on deal analysis and avoiding bad investments really boosted my confidence. The bonuses included, like the apartment investing guide and tax planning tips, were just icing on the cake. If you're looking to break into real estate or expand your rental empire, this boxset gives you everything you need in a straightforward, easy-to-follow format. I highly recommend it for beginners and seasoned investors alike!

Queer LitRPG at it's finest
Format: Kindle
It's been a while since I've read this genre. This is by far one of the best books in the LitRPG genre that I've ever read though. It has all of the trappings of a good LitRPG book, plus it has an actual plot and fleshed out characters. And our MC, Cat doesn't start off OP at all. Plus the fact that it's a queer woman as the MC. Beautiful. The snark from her AI companion, Mayalis is really fun as well. Lots of the reviews I've noticed seem to be reviewing the entire series as a whole, but I'm just going to stick to what I've read in each book separately. The story is fast paced, with short, bite sized chapters that lead you to zipping through. Because the next chapter is only a few more pages, you'll take a break then...or maybe the chapter after. I certainly couldn't put it down. I'm eagerly anticipating the next installment of the story to find out what happens next as well as to watch Cat's power grow. There is no romance yet in the story really, though there is a somewhat established relationship involving one of Cat's fellow orphans, Lucy. There is the promise for more romance ahead, and I'm looking forward to it.

Easy reading, needs an edit pass
Format: Kindle
Bottom Line Up Front: good enough to buy sequels. The premise of the story is set up well, pacing is overall decent (coincidentally, about real-time with the reader). The characters are simple, boiling down to one property for personality, one for motivation, and one for looks. However, they play believably against each other and there's no feeling of railroading (except one place, more on that later). The chapter prefaces offer a nice world building method unconstrained by the first person exclusive story itself. On the other hand... Tell me the book was written during Trump-era mask mandates without saying "The book was written during Trump-era mask mandates". Those references, while amusing now, will be dead in a few years (unlike the reference to SpaceBattles which is eternal). Speaking of: The book could use a professional editor to fix things like "gravity thingamaBALL" being two pages later called a "gravity thingamaGRENADE" and described as a cylinder, easy to tie to. Clearly the author changed the shape for convenience but forgot to change the earlier mention (also, metal cylinders slip out of nooses. If you write an ACME 10-ton weight, shape it like a weight and be done with it ;). There were other similar niggles that I forgot now, and I saw no major plotholes... But remember: SpaceBattles forum feedback does not an editor equal. Overall, nice way to spend sick days with 40 C fever.

Just from the beginning, I'm hyped
Format: Kindle
Just from reading the first few chapters, I'm excited. I hate having to deduct stars for non-story related issues, but this formatting is really hard to read. This is much easier to read on Neovel. I started reading it there after Amazon had recommended this book to me. I had no idea we had a web-novel to (light?-)novel pipeline in English! After the first few chapters, I bought the book here to support the author, but trying to read it is a very poor experience. The spacing and sometimes fonts are wrong and make it really hard to read, which is odd because the formatting is great on Neovel. It's almost like it was copied over into ebook using a poorly written tool that didn't properly convert various tags. The primary issue is a lack of indentation on paragraphs. There's also that the AI speaks in italics, but sometimes the italics are missing. Some edits have been made from the web novel, though they seem mostly spelling fixes. The character's point totals are significantly different in Chapter 26 of the web novel vs this book. I haven't re-read the ebook from the beginning though, so I don't know why there's such a difference. I'm not sure which one is better to read, though for some reason the author never put volumes 2 and 3 on Amazon so you'll need to read them over there anyway. Update: As a huge fan of the series, I raised my star rating even though I still stand by the formatting issues. It's not fair to have that tarnish the content rating though. Also, of course, future volumes have continued to be published since then.
