Monstera deliciosa – Swiss Cheese Plant “Zül Gurub” (XL)

“Zül Gurub” is a Monstera deliciosa that grows near my desk, soaking in the soft light from a south-facing window. Its broad, fenestrated leaves unfurl slowly, catching the afternoon sun in cool tones of green and shadow. It’s a calm, steady presence—one that quietly fills the room with a sense of movement and life.

Monstera deliciosa, often called the Swiss Cheese Plant, is known for its large perforated leaves and air-purifying qualities (NASA Clean Air Study). Native to tropical rainforests, it adapts beautifully to indoor life, thriving in bright, indirect light. “Zül Gurub” carries a gentle balance—structured yet wild, expressive yet peaceful—just like the rhythm of a day spent creating beside it.
