Monstera deliciosa 'Thai Constellation'
One Monstera deliciosa 'Thai Constellation' will be available for purchase at the Winter Houseplant Sale!

Monstera deliciosa 'Thai Constellation' is a highly desired variety of variegated monstera grown from tissue culture in Thailand. The large green leaves feature dazzling cream-colored accents. This marble coloring is a rare mutation caused by a lack of chlorophyll.

This special monstera can make a statement in your home and is sure to become the talk (and envy) of all your plant-loving friends. As a member, you will be the first to have access to purchase this beauty!

The Conservatory Greenhouse is open to the public for free (donations are always welcome) on Mondays and Thursdays from 11:00am to 2:00pm and during the Winter Houseplant Sale.
