Monstera adansonii
Monstera adansonii is a beautiful tropical foliage plant with heart-shaped leaves. M. adansonii is smaller than the dwarf type Monstera deliciosa. Unlike other Monsteras, M. adansonii only develops leaf perforations and no leaf incisions. The holes are already visible at a very early stage. Monstera adansonii is native to South and Central America, where it grows as an evergreen perennial in tropical rainforests. Monstera adansonii is very suitable as a decorative houseplant. Monstera adansonii is also known as the "Gatenplant" (Hole plant). Other internationally used names for Monstera adansonii are: Swiss cheese plant; Cheese plant.
