Monstera Lechleriana Variegata: Unique beauty with rare variegation

Leaf shape and special features:

The Monstera Lechleriana Variegata, also known as the Swiss cheese plant, impresses with its large, deep green leaves, which are decorated with a unique variegation of white and cream-colored speckles and spots. This distinctive pattern makes each plant unique and gives it an exotic look. Unlike other Monstera species, the Lechleriana Variegata rarely has the characteristic holes and slits, which makes its appearance even more special. The leaves can grow up to 50 cm long and 30 cm wide and grow on long, climbing shoots.

Origin:

This rare Monstera species originally comes from the tropical rainforests of Central America.

Care:

• Light: Bright location with indirect sunlight. Avoid direct sunlight as this can cause the leaves to burn.
• Watering: Water regularly, but avoid waterlogging. Allow the soil to dry slightly between waterings.
• Humidity: Ideally high humidity. Regularly spraying the leaves with water or using a humidifier can increase humidity.
• Temperature: Warm temperatures between 20°C and 28°C. Avoid temperatures below 15°C.
• Fertilizing: During the growth phase, fertilize every 2-4 weeks with a liquid fertilizer for green plants.
• Climbing: The Monstera Lechleriana Variegata is a climbing plant and therefore requires a climbing aid, such as a moss stick or trellis.

With its unique leaves and moderate care, the Monstera Lechleriana Variegata brings a touch of tropical flair into your home and will quickly become a new favorite.
