Botanical Characteristics:

• Variegation: The 'Albo Variegata' is prized for its stunning white variegation, which varies significantly from leaf to leaf depending on light exposure.

• Growth Habit: This climbing plant leverages aerial roots to secure itself, growing tall and showcasing its variegated foliage when supported.

• Leaf Development: As the plant matures, the iconic split leaves emerge, enhanced by the variegation that adds visual interest and distinctiveness.

Care Guide:

• Light: Bright, indirect light is essential to preserve the variegation. Low light may encourage more green growth, while too much direct sun can scorch the white areas.

• Water: Allow the top few inches of soil to dry out before watering thoroughly; ensure excellent drainage to avoid root rot.

• Humidity: Performs best in high humidity but can adapt to average indoor levels. Consider using a humidifier or misting the leaves regularly to promote optimal health.

• Soil: Opt for a well-draining, organically rich potting mix to support robust growth.

Special Considerations:

• Propagation: Propagation requires care to maintain the variegation in new plants. Select stem cuttings that include both variegated and green sections for best results.

• Pricing and Availability: Due to its rarity, Monstera deliciosa 'Albo Variegata' is often available in limited quantities and may command a higher price.
