The Splitleaf philodendron (Monstera deliciosa) or Swiss cheese plant is a common epiphyte that can be found on trunks up to 50 feet off the ground. Seedlings start on the ground and grow towards darkness (most plants seek light) seeking a trunk to latch onto and climb up to the light. All parts of the plant contain potassium oxalate which is poisonous to humans but if the fruits (shown here) are picked and stored in a cool dry place until the outer rough layer dries and drops off. The inner flesh is edible and tastes a bit like a sweet version of jackfruit.
