Monstera lechieriana var.
Variegated Monstera lechleriana is a gorgeous hard-to-find species that has long, narrow leaves streaked and splotched with white and cream. As is the case with many Monstera varieties, the leaves will get larger as the plant matures and develop large round fenestrations (windows) toward the center of the leaf.
Monstera lechleriana thrives in bright, indirect light and requires well-draining, chunky soil (coco coir, perlite, bark) to prevent root rot. Water when the top 50-75% of the soil is dry, allowing it to dry out slightly more than M. deliciosa. Provide a moss pole to support its climbing habit, which encourages larger, fenestrated leaves.
