Monstera deliciosa 'Thai Constellation'
Offered here is the stable mutation of this famous and rare collectors plant. 'Thai Constellation' has green and cream foliage overlaid with 'shooting stars' of yellow coloring. Mature plants have leaves almost two feet long with deep cut 'fenestrations' on the leaf edges. In the wild, these splits allow rain water to reach below the jungle canopy.
This is a tropical plant and should be grown in temperatures no lower than 50 degrees Fahrenheit to prevent rot and foliage damage. We water this just as the media becomes dry on top. This is a large growing species that needs lots of room to climb and send down aerial roots. It will also need a trellis, or structure to support the runners as they grow. Do not over feed, they don't require much fertilizer to do well. Indoors, we suggest bright, indirect light similar to orchids. If growing outdoors, or in a greenhouse partial shade is a must to prevent leaf burn.
The division offered is growing in a 16" large clay pot with coarse potting media. Plant is very established having been potted almost 12 months ago. All photos show the exact plant you will receive. Plant weighs about 50 lbs in pot.
