Name: Monstera adansonii
Common Name: Swiss Cheese Plant, Adanson's Monsteria, Monkey Mask Plant

Monstera adansonii, commonly known as the Swiss Cheese Plant or Adanson's Monstera, is a popular and attractive houseplant renowned for its unique foliage and easy care. This species belongs to the Araceae family and is native to the tropical rainforests of Central and South America, including countries like Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru.

Monstera adansonii is characterized by its distinctive heart-shaped leaves, which develop unique fenestrations (holes) as they mature, giving the plant its "Swiss cheese" appearance. The leaves are typically deep green, glossy, and can grow up to 30 cm (12 inches) in length. The plant has a vining or climbing growth habit, making it ideal for hanging baskets, trellises, or as a trailing plant in a pot.

In its natural habitat, Monstera adansonii grows as an epiphyte, meaning it climbs trees and other structures to reach light. As a houseplant, it can be grown in a container or as a climbing vine with proper support.

Cultivation & Care Guide

Cultivation of Monstera adansonii

Conditions:

  1. Light: Monstera adansonii thrives in bright, indirect light. It can tolerate lower light conditions but may not develop as many fenestrations. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves.
  2. Temperature: This plant prefers warm temperatures and thrives in USDA hardiness zones 10-12. It should be kept in temperatures between 18-27 °C (65-80 °F) and protected from cold drafts or temperatures below 10 °C (50 °F).
  3. Soil: Monstera adansonii prefers a well-draining, organic potting mix. A mix designed for houseplants or a blend of peat, perlite, and pine bark works well to provide adequate drainage and aeration.
  4. Water: Water the plant when the top 1-2 inches of soil are dry. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so ensure that the soil is well-drained and allow excess water to escape through the drainage holes.

Planting and Care:

  1. Planting: Plant Monstera adansonii in a container with good drainage. Use a rich, well-draining potting mix, and ensure the pot has drainage holes to prevent waterlogging.
  2. Fertilization: Feed the plant with a balanced, liquid fertilizer every 1-2 months during the growing season (spring and summer). Reduce feeding during the fall and winter months when the plant’s growth slows.
  3. Maintenance: Monstera adansonii is relatively low-maintenance. Regularly dust the leaves to keep them clean and allow the plant to photosynthesize efficiently. Prune any yellow or damaged leaves to maintain a healthy appearance.

Growing from Cuttings

  1. Cutting Preparation: Take a cutting from a healthy plant with at least one node (the area where leaves and roots grow) and a few leaves. Use a clean, sharp knife or scissors to make the cut.
  2. Propagation: Place the cutting in a glass of water or directly into a pot with a well-draining potting mix. If using water, change the water every few days and wait for roots to form before transplanting.
  3. Germination Conditions: Place the cutting in a warm, bright location but out of direct sunlight. Rooting can take several weeks to a couple of months.
  4. Care for New Plants: Once the cutting has developed a sufficient root system, transplant it into a pot with well-draining soil. Continue to care for it as you would a mature Monstera adansonii, providing bright, indirect light and regular watering.

Monstera adansonii is a stylish and resilient plant that adds a touch of tropical flair to any indoor space. Its distinctive foliage and adaptable nature make it a favorite among houseplant enthusiasts.

Effective and functional air purifying
Style: Medium Room Air Purifier, Style: Medium Room Air Purifier
This Amazon Basics model AC2224A Air Purifier is a really capable machine with a somewhat unique filter. I ordered it when it was on special and decided to give some detail on the features to help folks who might be new to air purifiers. The filter weighs in at just over 1lb. That's actually pretty heavy for the size. The filter does the standard 3 things people expect, pre-screen, hepa, active carbon adsorption, but it's a little unique in how it is configured. The pre-screen is straight forward and permanently attached to the outside. It should catch big stuff like pet hair to help stretch out the more expensive layers. Most other filters run a single layer of hepa then separately on the inside run a layer of activated carbon - either as mesh or pellets. Here the filter stitches the hepa and the active carbon together. The active carbon is actually small chunks about the size of sugar crystals layered inside. (yes, I found the end and cut off a pieces to check it out). That actually is a very thoughful way to do it. Activated carbon is structurally changed in the factory to increase its surface area. It's a process you can't replicate at home. The activation allows it to adsorb molecules that cause odor and VOCs. I've given you an illuminated photo of the inside of the filter so that if you can zoom in you'll see the random strands which the hepa standards require. Random strands improve filtering and add strength for the filter. The risk with running a layered filter like this is that if it's constructed poorly it will block airflow. I can check those aspects and on high speed the machine pulls under 30watts and puts out just shy of a 9mph air flow. That's good work. Air flow does create air noise which I measured at 65db directly on top of the machine. It drops another 10db a foot away. On the sleep mode I get 42db on top and that actually drops below the 30db I can measure once you're a foot away from the machine. So, it's capable of power and of being quiet. The last thing is the automation. There is an air sensor on the back by where the cord plugs in that measures the PM2.5 levels. I know what mine are (I have multiple purifiers and sensors), so it doesn't surprise me in the least that on auto the machine drops down to the lowest level. You can also turn on a light that then adds a color to indicate the air purity. I use either essential oil or incense to test the sensor. This was very responsive and noted the essential oil mist I was diffusing right away. It turned the light red and sped to its highest level. Once it had cleaned up the issue it slowed back down and returned to its peaceful green color. It gives solid performance that is in no way basic. Plus, there's the added advantage that you're familiar with the company behind it.

Fresh Air, Quiet Performance, and Easy Setup
Style: Medium Room Air Purifier
Great air purifier! It was super easy to set up and started working right away. The noise level is low, even on higher settings, and the air in my room feels noticeably fresher. It’s compact, looks nice, and fits well in smaller spaces. Definitely a solid buy if you want something simple and effective.

Good air purifier - make sure you actually unwrap the filter lol
Style: Medium Room Air Purifier
I'm an idiot and didn't realize the filter that comes already inside it was in there wrapped in plastic for some reason that surpasses my understanding (the whole unit was already wrapped in plastic, why is the filter, which is inside the plastic-wrapped unit, also wrapped in its own separate plastic?? As if we need more plastic in the world...). Anyway, I didn't look inside cuz I thought the filter would just be installed in there and I plugged it in and cheerfully ran it for months til it told me it was time for replace the filter then bought a second filter and went tk take my old one out only to realize I hadn't been filtering anything all that time 😅 oops. Lol. So yeah, make sure you unwrap the filter. Otherwise it's a good little air purifier. Now that the filter is actually installed right, I notice it kicks up higher when we cook or do anything that would lower air quality, so it does seem to be detecting that properly! My allergies do seem better overall. It's pretty quiet when it's on low, but does get loud when it kicks up. I'm OK with that since it pretty much only happens when we cook or if I just put out a candle or something.

Not worth it
Style: Medium Room Air Purifier
Disappointed in this air purifier. Doesn't seem to keep the air clean. Air filter needs to be replaced more often than other air purifiers. Unfortunately I can't return this product. Would not recommend this. Buy a Levoit air purifier instead. Works much better and filter doesn't need to be replaced as often.
