The oversize leaves of monstera imbue a tropical feel
Monsteras are trendy choices, much loved for their leaf holes and cuts.
If you're looking to create a big, bold, tropical feel in your home, Monstera may be the perfect houseplant. It features big leaves that look like they have holes or cuts in them, giving rise to two of its other common names: Swiss cheese plant and split-leaf philodendron (while monstera is not a type of philodendron, it is closely related to them).
While young, this houseplant has a dense, bushy shape, but as it grows, it wants to vine out. You can keep it bushy with regular pruning, or let it climb up a vertical support for a decidedly bold and tropical look. The older the plant and the better the conditions, the larger it gets and the bigger its leaves grow.
Looking for something smaller? Little Swiss monstera (Monstera adansonii) offers smaller leaves that are still big on texture (and splits and holes).
Monsteras are:
- Great gifts
- Live indoor houseplants
- Delivered fresh from farm
- Tropical
The big leaves of monstera make a big impact in any room

Decorate with a trend!Plants species like Monstera that show off big splits and slits – called fenestration – are appealing to plant collectors. These plants are very trendy because they are visually impactful and relatively uncommon in houseplants. |
Easy CareYou can grow monstera just about anywhere. It tolerates low light, but grows faster and becomes more dramatic in a bright spot. |
Cleans the airSome studies suggest that leafy plants, such as Monstera, improve the air you breathe by removing toxins. |

Product Description
Monstera features solid, green foliage. The Monstera is great for large spaces. It does well in spaces that have medium, indirect light. Place Monstera in a spot that receives medium light (3-5 hours of sunlight). Water your plant about once a week with approximately 2-3 cups and be sure all excess water drains away. Adjust as needed for your environment. Do not let the Monstera sit in water or overly soggy soil. The height at shipping is approximately 24-inches tall, measured from the bottom of the pot to the top of the plant. The Monstera ships in a bamboo, 10-inch décor pot. To avoid water spillage, this container does not have holes. The Monstera is a moderate grower. Exact growth rate depends on the care provided and its environment. Give it a boost during the warm months of Spring and Summer with a general-purpose fertilizer that is formulated for potted plants. Follow the instructions on the fertilizer package for the best use. When the plant out grows the current container, it is time to repot. To repot the Monstera, gently remove it from its current container and place it into a slightly larger container. Fill in any empty spaces with new and fresh soil and water thoroughly. This plant is considered hardy in USDA Zone 10-12. Be aware of third-party sellers; other companies try to imitate our quality. There are no other authorized Costa Farms sellers. Look for ships from & sold by to ensure you’re getting our premium plants. Plants are living things; each one is slightly different, so the plant you receive may vary from the photo. Our growers hand-pick the healthiest and highest-quality plants. We package our plants for shipment with great care so they'll arrive at your home ready to be displayed.

CONS: Although packaged quite well, I did end up removing one of the largest leaves, that was torn in shipping. Not a big deal, and to be expected shipping from many states away.
The main problem I am not too happy about is the root rot. My plant was shipped swimming in water, causing root rot, which you can see in my photo with the yellow spots with black center. So unfortunately I had to chop off that leaf as well to keep the fungus from spreading. I’m very relieved I caught it so early, otherwise I might have lost the whole plant. I repotted it immediately into fresh soil, but the poor plant was weeping out all of the excess water through its leaves for about a week.
OVERALL: This plant exceeded expectations for a mail order plant! Once you do a little prep work, it is stunning. Honestly, even though there were a couple hiccups, I would definitely order again.
Once it arrives, immediately take it out of its container, remove as much of the soaking wet dirt as possible, and replant it in fresh DAMP soil. Do not water until the first two inches of soil dry out. Once you do that, the plant will thrive if it’s in the right light and temperature.

Ultimately I ended up cutting back majority of the leaves and I believe that it will end up being fine. This is my first time purchasing from Costa, and again, the weather did end up being horrible so I am not exactly surprised that a plant did not hold up very well. Overall, I think that better packaging would be my only improvement. Also, paying attention to where the plant is traveling to for shipping/packaging coordination, reviewing things early is always great, but receiving healthy plants is better! :)

EDIT: More than a month later, out of the blue, I received a replacement! Costa Farms apologised for the late reply and for the state of the original plant. The replacement is smaller but MUCH healthier, and there are no breakages or damage. I'm adding another star for this!
