About Monstera adansonii 'Laniata'
The Swiss Cheese Plant is named for its characteristic leaves with holes resembling swiss cheese! The holes in Monstera leaves let water drip close to the roots, and they absorb the scattered beams of sunlight that make it down through the forest canopy ☀️.

I did what had to be done! I ended up just chopping her to bits and we will hope for the best. I’m letting them callous overnight just for good measure.jazelle is now 16 different plants. Well I guess for now nodes,and for some, a node with a leaf. If any of you have suggestions on propagating these leaves a comment! Thanks for the support #PropagationStation #Monstera #Dyingplant

Good morning☕️🌞 to #TheThread Its Humpday and im up way to early as usual😤 but atleast it gives me plenty of time for lots of coffee. I already tried to go out to the porch this morning for my first cup but the mosquitos attacked as soon as i sat down😱! So i retreated back to my recliner for this mornings post. AND DAMN IM ITCHY😡🤷♂️😂! They got me GOOD! That little rain we had mustve got them worked up cause theyre usually not out this early. I had a pretty easy day at work yesterday and i was home by 1. I didnt do much after i got home though except nap and sit! I thought about repotting my cutlass and squamaferium philo but didnt ever get that far lol. Oh well maybe after work today. Itch itch itch😤 scratch scratch😡! NO REALLY THEY DESTROYED MY ARMS😂! ..... more coffee pause😍..... ok im back with a FULL cup🙌. We had another awesome day of photos plant tips and great convo yesterday! There were a ton of great pics to browse through but i chose these perfect 5 for this mornings line up👍. Our first photo was shared by @PrizedShadscale from her parents yard full of beautiful flowers. Im not sure of what this is? But gregs calling it a red frangipani. Whatever it is, its AMAZING🤩! I just love that leaf pattern and those simple but elegant white and yellow flowers just draw your eyes in and ignite the imagination. @Sassylimey is on PEDUNCLE WATCH😱! She says her hoya sunrise has 9!!! COUNT EM! 9!! Peduncles on it currently and as she IMPATIENTLY 🤷♂️😂 waits for them to bloom😍. Maybe if you watch them theyll open faster🤔? Jk jk ! Our 3rd photo just had to be a pet photo with that cute face🥰. This was an accidental share by @SillyPlantGirl of her precious poochie so we didnt get a name for this wonderful girl. But i figured she wouldnt mibd me sharing it! Is it me or is she looking at the camera like " really mom? MORE PICTURES!" 🤷♂️😂 you just gotta love DOGS! Photo 4 came to use from @TidyTigerpear plant oasis. This painters pallet anthurium is just a showstopper with those monsterous leaves and bright red flowers😎 (not flowers). You know that beauty gets a prime spot in the windows at her house! And this gourgeous geranium growing @Prentyce house is our last photo for the day. I thought its perfectly HOT pink huge FLOWERS matched her personality so well it had to brighten your day as much as she does! Sadly thats the end of the show😤... BUT THERES MORE COFFEE😍! Have a great day and STAY SAFE🥰 #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #NewGrowth #GregPlantShop #GregGang #monstera #Hoya #HoyaHangout #AlocasiaAddicts

They arrived in perfect condition. My heart just 💕 swelled with joy. I posted his Etsy shop above. The blooming (smells like heaven) #sansevieriablackcoral has sooo many new babies and the pot is about to bust open from the new growth. #happywifehappylife

My plant is now facing an east window. Soon I will put it in our sunroom. I do not have any east windows. What window would you put it in? #Monstera

hey everyone!! this is my first time propagating a plant & im wondering how do i know when it’s ready to plant? it’s grown 2 new roots. i change out the water weekly and i’ve had it for about a month and a half. #Monstera

‘Chop’ or ‘Not to Chop”? This is nearly as tall as me and the leaves are huge. They have been getting bigger and bigger leaves as it grows and attaches to the core pole (for all you core pole haters they do work) The question is TIME TO CHOP? Let me know what you would do! #HappyPlants #GregGang #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #PropagationStation #PlantTherapy #MonsteraMonday #BeforeAndAfter #timetraveler #TimeTravelers #ChopAndProp

Starting to Flower! 💚 First time I have never seen a monstera esqueleto flower 💐. Anyone else seen what the flowers look like?
