GROWING UP A GLORY POLE FOR YOU TO ENJOY WATCH GROW AND FLOURISH!
The incredibly rare, elusive, and sought after variety of Monstera that produces attractive variegated leaves marbled with white colouring.
This particular plant has been raised and has the most beautiful leaves with striking colouration, it has a total of 6 leaves with a new one on the way.
The plant boasts at least 6 node that could easily be chopped ready for propagation!
Being summer in Sydney this plant is enjoying a lot of new growth and is very happy and healthy.
Position
This plant likes a nice bright well-lit room with filtered light; take care not to place in direct sunlight as this will burn the leaves.
Care
Fertilise during warmer months, train aerial roots to grab onto a trellis or a moss pole to encourage further growth.
As the plant is on a moss pole it is recommended that the pole is watered only as this is where most roots will grow, watering the potting mix can make the plant to damp as the moss pole will make the potting mix wet.
When the plant is actively growing during the warmer months, it will require a bit more food and water to help support it's new growth.
Fertiliser (plant food) can be applied as granular slow release pellets or as a liquid.
Leaves with a lot of variegation need protection from sunlight so try to place in a shaded spot out of direct sunlight, it is also not uncommon for highly variegated leaves to be susceptible to browning edges- this can be from in-frequent watering, too much direct light for too long. 1-2 hours of warm part shade light a day is the maximum amount, place in a brighter filtered light position to help it maintain those beautiful variegated leaves.
If out growing the moss pole an extension is possible by adding another to the top section- we can offer assistance with this, or you may think about chopping and propagating.
