Meet Heidi, the Monstera Adansonii ‘Swiss Cheese’.
Heidi considers herself an adventurer. Her latest expedition was across the bookshelf, but she’s confident it counts.
Curious, sociable, and always looking for somewhere new to explore, she brings a little wandering spirit to your home. Her beautifully holey leaves are her signature look, though she would appreciate everyone finding something else to discuss at dinner.
She loves a scenic spot, interesting company, and hearing about the places you’ve been. Mention a cheese board and she’ll assume she’s invited.
Kevin offered to help her create a five-year plan. Heidi asked whether it included a window seat.
Her perfect match? Someone with a curious heart, room for a little growth, and an appreciation for a companion who takes the scenic route.
