Monstera 'Albo'
The Monstera 'Albo' is one of the most sought-after plants among collectors, known for its stunning variegated leaves that blend striking white and vibrant green. These plants were propagated from a mature stem cuttings.
Hydroponic Growth and Shipping
The Monstera 'Albo' plant we have available (the plants you see pictured) have been grown hydroponically to promote strong, healthy root system. It will be sent bare-rooted, carefully wrapped in sphagnum moss to maintain moisture during transit. This allows you the flexibility to continue growing it in a hydro setup or transition it to soil once received.
Care Instructions for Monstera 'Albo'
As with all variegated Monsteras, care will vary depending on the amount of white in the leaves. Leaves with more white are more sensitive to environmental conditions, so special attention is needed:
- Light Requirements: Provide bright, indirect light to maintain the plants variegation. Leaves with more white require adequate light to prevent browning, but excessive direct sunlight can lead to leaf burns.
- Watering:? If you continue growing it hydroponically, maintain the water levels so the roots always have access to water. If transitioning to soil, allow the top few cm to dry out between waterings. Overwatering can lead to root rot, but its important not to let the plant fully dry out either.
- Humidity: As a tropical plant, the Monstera 'Albo' prefers higher humidity levels (60% or more), though it can adapt to average household humidity with the right care.
- Growing Medium: Whether you choose to grow it in a hydroponic setup or transition it to soil, ensure the roots have access to well-draining conditions. For soil setups, use a chunky mix with orchid bark, perlite, and peat to mimic its natural environment.
