    Grow your own Monstera Deliciosa "Swiss Cheese Plant" with these quality seeds! Monstera Deliciosa is a unique and visually stunning addition to any home with it's large, glossy "swiss cheese" leaves.

    Instructions:

    Monstera deliciosa seeds do not store well, so if not planting right away, store in sphagnum moss in a baggie in the fridge to prevent rot and drying out. Germinating fresh seeds is easy and quick, and germination rates vary from 50%-100% depending on setup and freshness of the seeds.

    To plant them, you can optionally soak them in warm water for 12-24 hours prior to planting. Sow them in moist potting mix, keep them covered with a humidity dome and consistently >70F, and away from direct sunlight.

    We recommend using the following to sow the seeds:

    Beautiful plants, perfect seeds

    I bought Monstera seeds from plantflix close to 2 years ago. 7/10 germinated. I sold a couple plants and gifted the rest. The one I kept is looking so good! I have it on a moss pole. It's currently in a 8 in Naked Root pot. Will likely repot soon as it is getting very large. I've had so much success with everything I have purchased from Plantflix that I now have quite a home jungle. Growing plants has become my therapy. Thank you Plantflix!

    My babies are still going strong!

    I planted 2, thinking only 1 would survive, but now I have 2 monsteras. They’re looking great and I can’t wait until their leaves split!

    High germination rate 😍

    Beautiful!! Watching my monsteras grow from seed has been so rewarding 😍 All of my seeds germinated and the plants healthy and growing fast with more fenestrations popping out with each new leaf. Cannot recommend more 🥰

    will buy again!

    bought my seeds on 5/20 and 9/10 of them have already sprouted. I didn't have a greenhouse, so I did a makeshift "dome" with a solo cup and plastic wrap. So ecstatic!

    Amazing

    Planted the seeds in November 2024. Every single seed produced. I split them up into different pots and used different fertilizer on each one to test which was best. One has double the size of the others. We get about 3-4 new baby leaves a week and they are perfect. I am in TN. All grown indoors with cheap sansei grow lights. Ignored everyone’s soil and water directions. Used regular potting soil and watered every week doing the flush method. The pots are also self watering.

    Great Quality Seeds!

    I was skeptical about growing Monstera from seed, but these exceeded my expectations! Every single seed germinated, and now, seven months later, I have healthy, thriving plants. The growth has been impressive, and the leaves are starting to show that signature Monstera beauty. If you're patient and willing to care for them properly, these seeds are absolutely worth it. Highly recommend!

    90% success rate!

    This company and their detailed information on how to get your seeds germinated are absolutely incredible. I wasn’t expecting such a high germination rate (90%, meaning 9 out of the 10 seeds I received sprouted). I meticulously followed their directions, including pre-soaking the seeds, keeping them warm on a heat pad, and providing them with a grow light. What you see in my photo is my sprouts at just one month old. At this rate, I feel the rest is on me! I will continue to follow this site to the “T” in terms of making sure the sprouts are cared for as best as possible until this site no longer has any more guidance OR the plants are adults, whichever comes first! LOL I highly recommend this company and these seeds. Do what they say, and you should be successful.

    One year later...

    Just wanted to give an update on how my monstera is coming along after 1 year. I sold the rest over the summer cause I don't have space for a bunch of monstera but the one I kept is now putting out leaves that are bigger than my head! What a difference a year makes! Absolutely gorgeous new leaf 💚

    Great seeds to start with

    I have had great success with the seeds. I strongly encourage you to soak them as you will have a much better germination rate.

    Great results

    I bought these seeds in December of 2022 and I now have multiple monsteras that I am proud of.

    I'm not very good with seeds, but was excited to see them grow. I must be doing something right 👍 9

    Consistently gaining new leaves

    This photo was taken a little over two months since I planted the seeds. It started in a mini greenhouse but I recently moved it out since one of the leaves started touching the top of the enclosure!

    Monstera seeds

    At 15 days we've got our first baby monstera barely starting to poke out. I did a little bit of digging around and found another seed with some white coming out so I expect to have more babies soon! I also did three in the paper towel method but I think my heat mat burned/cooked them. I probably should have put them in Tupperware instead of a plastic bag right on the mat.

    A mostly pretty good batch!

    I received 11 and two were squishy right away. I put 6 in the aerogarden and two in 3 in perlite. In perlite, I'm 2/3 with one rotting and the other two beginning to germinate. In the aerogarden, I have no rots, and about 5 have germinated already. 3/11 were toast pretty early, but I have high hopes for the rest. Packaged really well. I appreciate the care guide. I'll probably grab more. 4/5 stars.

    Fantastic seeds!

    I have bought so many seeds from this site. This is Elvis and a bunch of babies I sprouted in May to make him look fuller.
    Monstera are some of the easiest plants to grow from seed!
    I would also check out hope selloum, ponytail palm, Altissima Ficus if you want some easy ones to start with.
    Monstera are one of my favorite plants and I have given away so many as gifts since the germination rate is so fantastic.
    They do take some time to sprout, as they note on the information card,be patient.
    Elvis will be 2 in November and got his first fenestrated leaf at 7 months.
    Do it. Buy them. Be patient and you will be rewarded!

    FAQs

    how difficult are these seeds to grow?

    Houseplant seeds are generally trickier to grow than your more common garden seed varieties- they require a specific setup and more time to sprout. You can find the difficulty for each seed variety specified under the "about the seeds" tab on each product page.

    We definitely recommend following the setups outlined in our seed guide here, and you can find further details in our blog!

    how long does it take for the seeds to germinate?

    Houseplant seeds take longer than most seeds to germinate, the average time for germination is 2-3 weeks. If you're curious about the sprouting time for a specific seed variety, you can find that information in the "about the seeds" tab on each product page.

    how do I grow houseplant seeds?

    All of our orders come with a basic starter guide for you to follow, but our seed guide here goes in much more detail and also offers alternative seed starter methods.

    We also include additional planting tips specific to each seed variety under the "instructions" tab of each product page. If you need extra help, don't hesitate to reach out to us at hello@plantflix.com!

    my seeds aren't germinating, what do I do?

    Houseplant seeds are tricky, and sometimes certain more difficult varieties can take some practice to finally get them to sprout!

    If you're having trouble with the seeds, you're not alone. Luckily there are ways to sometimes salvage seeds by adjusting the setup- this quiz can help diagnose any issues you may have with your setup and make suggestions for how to improve it.

    You can also email us at hello@plantflix.com and we can help out! If the seeds still aren't germinating, we'll send out a replacement :)
