Hydro – Monstera deliciosa Variegata
The Monstera deliciosa Variegata is a particularly rare and exquisite variety of the classic Monstera. Its large, deeply split leaves are irregularly variegated in white to cream, making every plant truly one of a kind. The Monstera originally comes from the tropical rainforests of Central America, where it climbs up trees. In hydroculture, the Variegata can be cared for in a particularly hygienic, even and root-friendly way.
Care in hydroculture
Light:
Very bright spot with plenty of indirect light; avoid direct sun, as the pale parts of the leaves are particularly sensitive.
Temperature:
Ideally 20–28 °C; do not keep below 16 °C.
Humidity:
High; regular misting or a humidifier promotes healthy leaves and vigorous growth.
Substrate:
Hydroculture granules (e.g. expanded clay) for a good supply of water and oxygen to the roots.
Watering:
Check the water level with the indicator and only top up once “Minimum” is reached. Short dry phases help the roots take up oxygen.
Feeding:
Every 2–4 weeks with special hydroculture fertiliser during the growing season, as variegated plants have slightly higher nutrient requirements.
Special features:
With a climbing aid or moss pole, the Monstera deliciosa Variegata develops larger leaves and grows steadily upwards. Because of its variegation, it grows more slowly than green Monsteras, but is all the more decorative and exclusive.
Overwintering tips
Top up with a little less water in winter and make sure temperatures stay above 16 °C. A bright spot is important even in the darker months. Avoid draughts. With good care, the Hydro Monstera deliciosa Variegata remains an impressive eye-catcher in your living space all year round.
