The Swiss cheese plant, scientifically known as *Monstera deliciosa*, is a tropical evergreen vine native to Central and South America. It's famous for its large, glossy, heart-shaped leaves, which develop distinctive holes and splits as they mature, resembling Swiss cheese—hence the name. This plant is a popular choice for indoor gardening due to its striking appearance and relatively easy care requirements. It thrives in bright, indirect light and high humidity, making it an excellent addition to any home or office space.
