Say hello to my newest baby #38 :) I’ve been avoiding these because I know they are toxic, but I’ve placed this one. I have on a planter where no one can get to it. Is this definitely a Swiss cheese Monstera? The majority of my house plants are Kalithea with a few succulents, but never a Monstera. Any and all tips are welcome. Also, how will this plant do in bright light, but still far away from my window?

    It’s definitely a monstera, and the plant itself likes bright indirect light I have mine about 2 feet from my window. See how it does, if it starts to yellow or look to sad I would say move him closer to the window :) They’re pretty nice plants and have been pretty forgiving at least from my experience.

    Mine is right in a east facing window. I would get a trellis or moss pole and so it will keep it stable and then it will grow nice instead of unruly and messy.

    It looks more like a deliciosa not a Swiss cheese

      This is what Swiss cheese leaves are shaped like… more narrow and asymmetrical…
