Cuttings box with 4 different rare houseplants.
You will receive a box in which may be included, among others, a selection of cuttings from the following species:
Monstera adansonii aurea variegata
Monstera adansonii aurea variegata is a rarity sought after among collectors, as each of its leaves has individually variegated drawings in bright yellow-green tones due to a special mutation.
Monstera obliqua Peru
A particularly interesting rarity for collectors is this Peruvian Monstera Obliqua. Like all forms of Monstera Obliqua, it is of relatively delicate growth, but the holes of this regional form can sometimes become so large that the leaves look as if they have more holes than leaf substance. Although obliquas are actually found throughout the Amazon Basin, they are still very difficult to find in the wild. They are more fragile than other Monstera species, as their leaves are almost parchment thin.
Epipremnum pinnatum marble variegata
The variegation of this rare Epipremnum with its green speckles on the white leaves looks like noble marble and makes the plant an eye-catcher. The variegation varies depending on the location, but direct sunlight should be avoided. Epipremnum pinnatum marble variegata can be kept in a hanging basket or can climb up climbing aids and is not complicated to care for.
Syngonium red spot tricolor
This rarity, much sought after by plant fans, offers a spectacular sight with its very unusual variegation of pink segments and cream speckles and spots. Each leaf has an individual variegation, making the plant an attractive one-of-a-kind. Nevertheless, it is also well suited for plant beginners, as its care is not complicated.
The box has a value of about 135 euros.
Depending on availability, other offshoots can also be selected by us, therefore the product photos are only possible example boxes.
Ben's tips on plant care:
- We recommend keeping the cutting in moist Sphagnum moss until it has formed roots. Then it can be potted in the soil recommended under the item Substrate.
- Location/Light Requirements: partial shade to light, avoid direct sunlight.
- Substrate: Ben's Philodendron & Monstera Soil, Special Soil
- Temperature: optimal at 23-27°C (day), 16-18°C (night), do not let cool down below 12°C
- Watering: keep substrate moist and water when the top layer of substrate begins to dry, using lukewarm water with low lime content, but avoid waterlogging. Water less in winter.
- Humidity: needs high humidity, spray regularly (but leaves should be able to dry afterwards!) (but leaves should be able to dry afterwards!) or use humidifier.
- Nutrient addition: In spring/summer about every 4-6 weeks with liquid fertilizer.
- Repot approx. every 1-2 years, when the plant is properly rooted.
