    ----- Variegated Monstera Information -----
    This beautiful and unusual rare plant is currently in high demand. Like most other variegated rare plants, it is also a slow grower and takes us years to grow it into a nice plant in a 5” pot. White Variegated Monstera has leaves 13-18” wide with large holes resembling Swiss cheese (some people call it Swiss Cheese Plant). Each leaf is unique with no two the same.
    The irregular cream-and-green variegation creates some leaves that are nearly fully white with green markings and other leaves are green with white marbling. Aerial roots anchor it to a trellis, moss pole or wall. In its native habitat, it’s an understory plant that climbs up tropical trees. Mature plants produce breadfruit, an 8-10” long cone, that takes a year to mature into an edible fruit.

    My mom always had one or two Monsteras in our living room. Only the stick was a wooden broomstick wrapt in moss. They were always very large. Never seen one flower though. Easy plant too. When you go on holiday just put a 10-liter bucket of water next to it and stick two of the aerial roots in the bucket. Always kept them alive. Good memories.

      Totally agree! - He's teaching things that are completely different from what I've heard from other UA-cam plant channels...He uses soil that isn't terribly chunky, says they are fairly resistant to root rot and he also says not to worry about "rooting" a cutting that has an aerial root b/c they adapt to soil.... I've always heard the complete opposite on all these things - I feel better now! I've been scared to death to pot my M deliciosa Aurea....

    • @ungoyone
      @ungoyone Рік тому

      Some of those air roots will die off in the soil, some will turn into feeding roots. Is there a "correct" way to root something? Nope. Root whatever method works best for you, bottom line. Some folks can't root in soil to save their life while others are the opposite.

      He's going off large and very healthy plants so the cuttings can take a bit more directedness. The cuts are thick with large leaves which means they can store more energy to make roots and new growth.
