They are drought tolerant and fast-growing houseplants that can easily survive in less sunlight. The leaves are quite big and lobate in structure. The cuts on it make it all the more beautiful. You need to take care when it starts growing the roots might start to come off the pot so you got to repot in the bigger pot.

Due to its variegation and beautiful foliage, silver is also known as satin pothos. They grow well in indirect light and the leaves may burn in direct light. You could hang these as they look beautiful when hung on the planters.
- Swiss Cheese money plant (Monstera variety)- Yet another indoor plant with beautiful big leaves with cuts in between. These perforated patterns on the leaves make it quite appealing and look like cheese. It’s basically a climber and can be grown indoors or outdoors as well. They like bright but indirect sunlight.

These money plants have strikingly different and unique foliage, which looks pretty as a picture. Neon Money Plants have a bright golden yellow color that offers it Neon or glowing effect. This glow is visible more in the young leaves than in the mature ones.
