Monstera Albo Variegated – L

Description

Monstera albo is a popular cultivar of the Monstera deliciosa, also known as the Swiss cheese plant. It is highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts for its striking variegated foliage.

The leaves of Monstera albo have a unique white or cream-colored variegation that is caused by a genetic mutation that reduces the plant’s ability to produce chlorophyll. This makes it more challenging for the plant to survive and grow, which is why it is a relatively rare and expensive cultivar.

Monstera albo is a climbing plant that can reach several feet tall, and it prefers bright, indirect light and a well-draining soil mix. It should be kept consistently moist but not waterlogged, and allowed to dry out slightly between waterings. The plant can be propagated from stem cuttings or by air layering.

Overall, Monstera albo is a stunning plant that can add a unique and eye-catching touch to any indoor space. However, it requires a bit more care and attention than some other houseplants, so it may not be the best choice for beginners or those looking for a low-maintenance plant.
