Thai Monstera Constellation 17cm pot

Own one of the most sought-after houseplants with Monstera 'Thai Constellation'. Its large, glossy leaves are speckled and splashed with creamy-white variegation, like a sky full of stars, which is how it got its name. As the plant matures, the leaves develop the classic Monstera splits and holes, making it a true showpiece.

'Thai Constellation' is prized because its variegation is stable, so the creamy patterns carry through to new leaves. It's a slower grower than the standard Monstera, but it's easy to care for and grows into a striking statement plant for living rooms, offices and bright corners.
