Monstera Deliciosa Indoor Plant with a woven rope planter basket

This is a Monstera deliciosa (commonly known as the Swiss Cheese Plant). A Few Quick Care Tips for Your Monstera: Support Its Climb: Monstera are natural climbers. Your plant is growing quite wide and leggy because it's looking for something to latch onto. Giving it a sturdy moss pole or coco coir pole right in the center of the pot and gently tying the main stems to it will encourage it to grow upright instead of sprawling outward. Light: It loves bright, indirect sunlight (similar to the window spot it is near). If it doesn't get enough light, the new leaves will grow smaller and won't develop those beautiful splits (fenestrations) that the older leaves have. Watering: Let the top 2–3 inches of soil dry out completely before watering it again. They prefer to be slightly underwatered rather than overwatered.
