Monstera Deliciosa is recognizable by its large, glossy unique green leaves with deep splits and holes called fenestrations that appear when the plant matures.
Monsteras are climbing plants native to southern Mexico and Central America that use its aerial roots to cling to large trees, so you should provide it with moss-covered support sticks or a trellis. If its aerial roots get unruly you can trim them, but it’s best to just tuck them back into the pot.
Monsteras are toxic if ingested, so think it twice before getting one if you have cats, dogs or children.
Monstera Deliciosa will grow best and fast in a bright but indirect place, but can survive in low light conditions, but you may notice leggy growth as a result.
There is no excuse to have one because they can grow almost everywhere in your house!
