Monstera Standeleyana 'Albo' Variegata

Taking the spotlight with its exotic charm, Monstera Standeleyana 'Albo' Variegata, commonly known as the 'Variegated Philodendron Cobra', is a mesmerizing houseplant originating from Central and South America. Its leaves are an intricate work of art, featuring a striking palette of cream, green, and a speckling of white variegation. The plant's elongated, glossy leaves have an irregular, pinstripe pattern, giving the plant a dynamic and vibrant aesthetic. They can reach lengths of up to 9 inches, with the overall plant growing to about 3 feet in height, although its sprawling growth habit can lead to a much larger width if given the room to roam. In a hanging basket or trellis, the Monstera Standeleyana 'Albo' Variegata will let its vines trail downwards, creating a cascading waterfall of leaves that adds a touch of tropical drama to any room. In a pot, the plant can be trained to climb upwards, creating a lush vertical accent. This versatile houseplant is a relatively fast grower, often adding several inches to its vines each month during the growing season. As an added bonus, this plant is also an epiphyte, meaning it has the ability to grow on other plants or objects, absorbing moisture and nutrients from the air, rain, water, or from debris accumulating around it. This feature makes it an excellent choice for mounting on a piece of bark or a moss pole, where it will create a striking, tropical display. As a testament to its tropical origins, the Monstera Standeleyana 'Albo' Variegata prefers bright, indirect light, and will reward you with its best coloration when given these conditions. It's also quite forgiving in terms of care, tolerating periods of drought and a wide range of temperatures. While the Monstera Standeleyana 'Albo' Variegata doesn't typically flower indoors, it's the dramatic foliage that truly steals the show. The plant's radiant leaves, combined with its easy-care nature, make it an ideal choice for both seasoned houseplant enthusiasts and beginners alike. Whether displayed as a hanging plant, trained to climb, or simply left to do its own thing, this Monstera variety will undoubtedly add a touch of tropical elegance to any space.

Plant sizing is based on the diameter of the nursery pot (2", 2.5", 3", 4" etc), not the plant itself. Plants may be slightly larger or smaller than the pot they are grow in depending on availability or time of year. While we do our best to ship plants as similar to those pictured as possible, please keep in mind that all plants are unique from one to the next, and display color, shape, and growth variation based on current environment, time of year, and other contributing factors. Please note that we ship our plants as dry as possible in the fall and winter months to prevent root rot or freezing. They will plump back up after planting!
