Monstera Adansonii Aurea and Albo Care Tips and Propagation Method

Monstera Adansonii is another kind of Monstera plant. It is easy to grow and care with. The plant needs to be placed in bright indirect sunlight since it is a variegated type of Adansonii. Before the price of one leaf Adansonii Albo cost aroung half a million peso. But now you can buy a one-leafer palnt for as low as one thousand peso only.

Just like most of my premium plants, I have bought the mother plant imported from Thailand with almost 3 to 5 leaves only. But since the size is juvenile it takes time to thrive and produce more leaves. Although once it starts producing new leaves then it will sprout new leaves every two to three weeks.

Pot: It needs a well-draining pot. Make sure the commercial plastic pot you will use is well-draining since most of the available in the market doesn't have a provision for holes.

Watering: water when dry, avoid over-watering.

Medium: loam soil, coco cubes, cocopeat, pumice.

The photos below are my actual propagations from two days ago.

Once it already has more than five leaves. better provide a pole so its aerial roots will be activated. A moss pole is highly recommended since the roots can be easily extracted from the moss when you need to propagate already.

Propagation: Once the aerial roots were activated you can then cut and start the propagation.
