Philodendron Swiss Cheese is a fast growing tropical houseplant known for its heart shaped green leaves filled with natural oval openings as the plant matures. Native to the tropical rainforests of Central and South America, this trailing Swiss Cheese Plant brings a lush tropical look to indoor spaces and can be grown cascading from a shelf or climbing a moss pole for extra height. It grows best in bright indirect light and warm indoor conditions, making it a beautiful choice for living rooms, offices, plant shelves, and bright indoor spaces.

plant tips

water
Allow the top 2–3 inches of soil to dry out between waterings. Water thoroughly and let excess drain completely — never let it sit in standing water.
light
Thrives in bright to medium indirect light. Avoid direct sun which can scorch the leaves — a spot near a bright window is ideal for the best leaf hole development.

care

Place in a warm, humid spot with bright indirect light and keep away from cold drafts and air conditioning vents. Water when the top few inches of soil feel dry and mist leaves occasionally or place near a humidifier to maintain humidity. Feed monthly with a balanced liquid fertilizer at half strength during spring and summer — skip in winter. Provide a moss pole or trellis for support to encourage larger leaves with more dramatic holes over time.
