Its eye-catching white variegation, which is the result of a natural gene mutation and is unique to each individual leaf, makes this Monstera a coveted collector's item among plant fans. Since this type of variegation is unstable, it can happen that the plant turns green or forms completely white leaves. In this case, the plant should be cut back accordingly (see care information).
• Delivery: You will receive a scion with 1 leaf and aerial roots.
• Growth type: climbing
• Origin: Tropical regions of Central America to South America
• Other names: window leaf, Swiss cheese plant


Ben's care tips:

• We recommend keeping the scion in moist sphagnum moss until it has rooted. Then it can be potted in the soil recommended under the point substrate.
• Location/Light Requirements: Partial shade, avoid bright/direct sunlight.
• Substrate: Ben's Philodendron & Monstera Soil, special soil
• Temperature: optimal at 22-28°C, do not allow to cool below 18°C
• Watering: Water well about once a week, keep the substrate moist but avoid waterlogging. Water less in winter.
• Humidity: Requires high humidity.
• Nutrient addition: In spring/summer approx. every 2 weeks with liquid fertiliser.
• Should be repotted about every 2 years.
• Avoid draughts. Dust the leaves regularly with a slightly damp cloth.
• If the plant becomes increasingly green or only develops white leaves, you should cut it back a little and orientate yourself on the white portion of the trunk. If you cut them back above a leaf node that has equally green and white tissue, chances are it will produce leaves with matching variegation as well.
