Monstera Albo

$0.00

Each leaf’s variegation is genetically unique—no two Monstera Albo plants look exactly the same.

The white portions of the leaves lack chlorophyll, which is why Albo grows more slowly than green Monsteras.

Highly sought-after “half-moon” leaves (half green, half white) are rare and prized by collectors.

In nature, Monstera is a climbing plant; providing a moss pole indoors encourages larger, more fenestrated leaves.

Variegation is stable and genetic (not light-induced), meaning it must be propagated from variegated cuttings.

Native to tropical Central America, Monsteras developed split leaves to help withstand heavy rain and wind.

Considered a statement plant in modern interiors due to its bold foliage and sculptural form.
