Monstera deliciosa 'Thai Constellation' is one of the most sought-after variegated plants in cultivation. It produces the same large, fenestrated leaves as the classic Swiss cheese plant, but with stable, creamy-white marbling and splashing that varies from leaf to leaf. Unlike some variegated plants, the variegation does not revert, making it a long-term investment for any collection. As a hemiepiphyte, it produces increasingly impressive leaves when given a moss pole or support to climb.

Origins
Native to the tropical rainforests of southern Mexico and Central America, Monstera deliciosa grows as a hemiepiphyte, climbing from the forest floor into the canopy. 'Thai Constellation' was developed through tissue culture in Thailand in the late 1990s, and the stable variegation is a result of a cellular mutation introduced during that process.

Soil and Substrate
Our Monstera and Philodendron Premium Potting Mix is peat-free, hand-blended in Yorkshire, and formulated for climbing Monsteras.
