Monstera deliciosa Thai Green Snow - Bare Bottom Baby

Description

Monstera deliciosa ‘Thai Green Snow’ is a stunning tropical plant prized for its large, glossy, split leaves with striking variegation. Each leaf showcases a unique pattern of creamy-white or pale green variegation against rich, deep green foliage, making every plant one-of-a-kind. This slow-growing Monstera develops mature splits and fenestrations over time, creating a bold, sculptural presence in any indoor space. It is a hybrid of Monstera deliciosa and other selective cultivars, cultivated for its appealing leaf patterns and tropical charm.

Care Plan

Light:

• Prefers bright, indirect light.

• Can tolerate moderate shade, but variegation may fade if light is insufficient.

• Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch leaves.

Watering:

• Water when the top 5–7 cm of soil feels dry.

• Reduce watering in cooler months.

• Avoid letting the plant sit in water to prevent root rot.

Humidity:

• Thrives in higher humidity (60%+ ideal).

• Mist occasionally or use a humidifier if indoor air is dry.

Temperature:

• Prefers 18–28°C.

• Protect from cold drafts below 15°C.

Soil:

• Well-draining, aerated potting mix.

• A mix of aroid soil, orchid bark, perlite, and coco coir is ideal.

Fertiliser:

• Feed with a balanced liquid fertiliser every 4–6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer).

• Reduce fertilising in winter.

Repotting:

• Repot every 1–2 years, or when roots begin to outgrow the pot.

• Choose a pot 2–5 cm larger than the current one to allow growth.
