tarvossaturnosNewly obtained monstera variegata is pushing out some beautiful leaves
Isn’t that a Thai constellation? I’ve got both and this looks much more like my Thai than VM. It my favourite!
Hmm I’m not sure, I think the nursery sold it as a variegata but it could’ve also just be ‘variegated’, I can’t exactly remember. I’m not seeing any yellow coloring in the spots though. Extra shot from another leaf:
It’s a Thai ☺️ far superior imo - the variegation is stable unlike in VMs which can revert. Every leaf will look different but it will always have variegated bits. You see the bottom left? That’s what they mean by “yellow”. It’s really just a little cream/off white. VMs tend not to have so much marbling, and all the variegated bits are white. There’s no variegation within the white iykwim? I believe Thais are still more expensive than VMs so you might have got a good deal if it was mislabelled! I’ll take some photos of my two tomorrow when it’s daylight if you’d like to see a comparison.
Wow okay, that makes sense! Thanks for the identification and all the information, good to know what kind of variegated version it is exactly. I’m new to the whole variegated monstera world so I have lots to learn lol.
