The Monstera Borsigiana Mint is somehow very similar to Borsigiana Albo and Monstera Green of Green but with mint or greeny tiny dots on its leaves. The plant care and propagation should be the same as Monstera Borsigiana Albo. You need to place the plant in a bright indirect sunlight, most recommended in a humid place. Do not use Urea as a fertilizer because the leaves of the plant will revert to full green. Personally, I use Osmocote and Thermocote for my variegated plants to enhance their variegation. I am yet to buy a Monstera Mint plant since it is a bit pricey until now. From 2020 to 2021, one leaf of Borsigiana Mint cost P100,000. In late 2022, the price of the plant dropped from P40,000 to P60,000 per leaf. As of this writing, you can buy one leaf brosi Mint for P20,000 to P30,000. My forecast is that one leaf Borsi Mint will cost P5,000 to P8,000 by end of the year.
Care Tips and Propagation:
Use a mix of coco peat, coco cubes, pumice and vermicast as a medium. Let the aerial roots crawl the plant pole to activate it before cutting and replanting. You can use a coco pole, but I suggest using moss pole since it is looser. Water the plant two to three times a week during summer. Do not overwater as this will cause root rot. Place on a high humidity place and under indirect sunlight.
More often we prefer a pot with a good design whether it'splastic of claypot, butthe best pot for any plants are those with more holes and can drain fast during watering.
