Know before you buy
The Large Form is characterized by its more robust growth habit and larger, thicker leaves compared to the smaller, more compact Borsigiana. It is a more mature-looking specimen that develops its iconic fenestrations more prominently as it grows.
Keep the plant in its original pot and place it in a spot with bright, indirect light. It is important to let the plant acclimate to your home's environment for at least one week before attempting to repot it.
This plant requires bright, indirect light to maintain its white variegation. Too little light may cause the plant to revert to solid green, while direct sun can scorch the delicate white sections of the leaves.
Water the plant thoroughly once the soil has dried out, which typically happens about once a week in an indoor environment. Always ensure the pot has proper drainage to prevent the roots from sitting in excess water.
No, the Monstera Deliciosa Albo is toxic to pets if ingested. It is best to keep this plant in a location that is inaccessible to curious animals.
This Monstera thrives in temperatures between 65-85°F. Avoid placing it near cold drafts, air conditioning vents, or heating sources, as extreme temperature fluctuations can stress the plant.
