Is this a monstera?
#Monstera hi! My partner picked up this plant as a gift for our anniversary yesterday. The tag for it just says “foliage” but Greg identified it as a monstera albo. Is that what this is? I only ask because I started doing research and learned that monstera albos are somewhat rare, and large forms even rarer. I am wondering if this is actually a monstera or a more common plant that just looks like it.

@rayslay25 thank you! 💚 it sounds like it is rare! My partner found it at Trader Joe’s. I’ve wanted a monstera for a while now so I’m very excited!

Hi! This IS a monstera Thai constellation, @Slyvie is right, which is different than a monstera albo, but they are both monsteras. Albos were a variety found naturally in the wild, and Thai constellations are lab-made. Thai cons are much more common now, thanks to tissue culture, and that is why you now find them in places like Trader Joe’s for great prices 🥰 Thank goodness they’re not thousands of dollars anymore!
