About Monstera Albo

The Monstera Albo is one of the most desired plants in the plant industry. The white variegation on the gorgeous fenestrated leaves makes them instantly recognizable and gives proud growers bragging rights! This Monstera variety's unique coloring is caused by a genetic mutation that inhibits chlorophyll production in some parts of the plant. Since this highly desirable mutation is rare, Monstera Albo plants are incredibly eye-catching and collectible. 

Tissue Culture Acclimation

It's natural to feel excited when your Monstera Albo tissue culture plantlets arrive. Our comprehensive acclimation guide includes helpful step-by-step videos and contains all the information necessary to welcome your new additions and give them the best start.

Watch our step-by-step video instructions on our How To Acclimate Your Tissue Culture blog!

• Step 1- Do not do anything to the culture for 1-2 days to allow them to adjust to the temperature in their new environment
• Step 2- Open the package & wash the agar jelly off the plant as thoroughly as possible. We strongly recommend using running water. A small paint brush can be gently used to assist with the cleaning process. This is one of the most important steps of the process.
• Step 3- Plant your cultures in the medium of your choice. We recommend a chunky blend of coco husk & perlite. We utilize acclimation plugs although there are many great mediums available.
• Step 4- Place them into a clear sealed package (container or plastic bag). Within 24-hours your container will have water droplets forming, which will confirm the container is at 100% humidity.
• Step 5-Place under a grow lights for between 8 & 14 hours a day
• Step 6- Leave plants covered for the first 7 days.  The following 7 to 10 days slowly expose plants to ambient air. Each day exposing the plants to slightly more air until fully acclimated. 

Our acclimation kits will contain all of the tools necessary for success. Just add water & grow lights to the simple acclimation process to produce healthy acclimated plants!

Monstera Albo Care Requirements

Your tissue culture Monstera Albo should only move onto its long-term care plan after it has been successfully acclimatized. Get the best from your rare jungle beauty with: 

• Light: It needs at least six hours of bright indirect light each day. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can quickly scorch the leaves.
• Temperature: As a true jungle plant, your Monstera Albo loves warm, damp conditions. Maintain steady temperatures of between 65 and 85 degrees Fahrenheit, and position it away from cold drafts.
• Humidity: High humidity levels are recommended. Mist the plant regularly, or use a humidifier to increase air moisture in dry conditions.
• Watering: Keep soil damp but never waterlogged. Ensure the pot has sufficient drainage.
• Soil: Use a rich, organic mix that includes coco husk and perlite.
• Fertilizing: Keep your Monstera Albo in show condition with regular applications of Orange Lake Nursery fertilizer.
