So true! I found a sport leaf on a Monstera at a box store. I took it home and waited and gave it a lot of light and it pushed out a half moon! I was so proud!

I have many rooted plants that came from my OG plant. each cutting alternates between green and variegated leaves, but with each chop I make, I am getting closer and closer to having a fully variegated. Just gotta be VERY selective on which nodes you make grow

[woowooone]

Thank you so much for this information!

[artemistv]

Haha i have a same variegated plant. One leaf is pure green, other is half green and half variegated, than next pure green etc. haha. Great informations. Like always!

[ultravioletindigosoulconne]

So what you do you do with the green leave, do you cut rhe leaf off ?

[jkwylie]

Question, I see you pulled back the sleeve of the leaf (is it sheath?), anyway, I can pull mine back too and it's white but there is not a new leaf coming but that part is starting to peel away.. Is this a bad sign?

[lamova]

I have a variegated monstera albo cutting that the stem has now turned green and leaves are green, the original leaf of the cutting was a half moon but the new leaves were spotted and now full green. What can I do?

[johsPha]

What if the stem doesn't have any variation? I have a aurea that has 2 leaves with one small spot of variation and i don't see any variation on the stem and i doubt the leaf i am waiting to open has any, the cutting that those leaves grow from does have stripes and i guess somewhat decent variation on the leaf but the new ones doesn't. I don't know if i should wait or cut the new stem off of the original cutting but i don't know if the original cutting would have enough energy to make a new stem?

I had bought a cutting with a white stripe on the stem but the next leaf to come out is mostly green with a fee specks on variegation and the recent one is fully green or at least have a tiiny line of white, both stems are green now. Does that mean I’ll have to cut back or will the variegation return?

[TehBananaBread]

Question: I propogated my albo, the activated node was 70% marbled white and 30% green, The leaf came out 98% green (few white marble spots) and the stem is fully green. How is this possible? The leaf sleeve was marbled all the way through, yet the leaf itself was ....green. Does this mean node color only shows the color your leaf sleeve wil be?

[tctcgct]

Bought an albo cutting a couple month back and it has pushed out an all green leaf. I guess it’s not surprising since the node came out of an all green prt of the stem. Is there any hope for this plant to get back some whites? The new stem and leaf is all green.

[CarloFranco]

What about the other way around? I have one that's been consistently marbled with med-large white patches suddenly giving me an all white with a tiny patch of green on the midrib. Should wait it out and see if green makes a comeback? I can see some green in the petiole and the stem that's emerging but still mostly white. Curious to hear your thoughts!

[americamartinez]

I bought 2 nodes that are green but mother plant is a albo what’s the like-hood I’ll get variegation and or how long would it take to see it?

[sebahoppe]

Nature is incredible! Love those plants

[shanncat]

If your stem has a few small lines will it grow more stems with variegated lines or will it just be the same

[andreiasofiamake-upartist]

Hi, I bought a cutting completly green of monstera variegata. Was very cheap that's why I bought it. But do you think I have any chance to get variegation again?

[sabrinazimmermann]

Would you recommend buying a plant with a stem that is almost all white and no green?

[TheLucha]

How do I get my monsters to variegate???

[TehBananaBread]

Because the only thing that matters is stem or node color

[Sophiasd]

my monstera albo has marbled stem with lots of white but I don't know why it keeps giving me very low varigated leaves😭after growing ten leaves, they're still low varigated and with each leave the amount of white on stem seems to become less. I hesitate to chop it because none of the nodes seem to be on very white areas on stem except very lower nodes. and I don't want to chop it that low because it has tiny, no fenestration, pothos-like leaves down there. I guess with some monsteras there's no way to achieve high varigation😔
