Monstera Deliciosa Variegata
This type of variegated monstera is considered a “true” variegated monstera; the variegation occurs naturally due to genetic mutation after germination. The variegation is unstable and can occur in many colors and patterns. True variegated monsteras are not common and are not typically sold commercially as the variegation is more of a fluke due to genetic mutation, and therefore unpredictable.
A epiphytic perennial with a climbing habit, Monstera deliciosa grows up to three meters tall when cultivated in pots. But in its native rainforests, its lianas can exceed 20 meters.
The plant clings to and wraps itself around trees thanks to its brown aerial roots. They also provide nourishment by capturing moisture naturally present in the air.
The tough, heart-shaped leaves grow on a long, hairless petiole. The largest, at the top of the plant, are up to a metre long. Their cut foliage lets light through to the limbs at the base. The latter are smaller and entire. As with monstera dubia, the leaves are multi-colored. But here, no silver highlights. The dark green blades are variegated with white or cream. Some are even completely immaculate.
