A lot of people get this special variety confused with the similar Monstera 'albo variegata'. Our grower carefully propagates vegetively to ensure plants are true to type. To avoid scorch of the soft variegated foliage when conditions are bright and sunny in the greenhouse, they are grown in partly shaded conditions, therefore please do not be alarmed on delivery, as this will result in less variegation being immediately present. If you therefore place your plant in a brighter spot, but avoid direct hot sunshine, a lot more variegation will appear on this most prestigious of houseplants. Of the two variegated Monstera forms available, Thai Constellation has large more irregular paint-like splodges on the leaves, sometimes with half or wholly shaded leaves which look truly amazing. The albo variegata form, is a more typical plant with various degrees of variegation and seemingly smaller leaves in our experience than the Thai. Don't be confused due to the cultural techniques used in producing Thai Constellation that you have the wrong plant on arrival - you can look forward to a rare and unequivocally unique variegated Monstera that will be the Jewel in the Crown of any house plant collection as it grows.
