This is "grower special" offering Variegated monstera nodes at very competitive prices compared what can currently be found online. Please read the description to understand what this listing entails. Variegated Monsteras can be tricky to root so it is not advised for beginners. The last picture shows one of the original mother plants.

**Due to the Rare/Limited nature of these cutting, Unfortunately: No Refunds, Replacements or Exchanges will be offered for cuttings that die or do not root in while in your care.**

"Why "Nodes" and not cuttings with the leaves still attached?
-By removing the leaf from the stem cutting, the plant begins to immediately focus on pushing out a new "main stem" weeks ahead of a leaf/stem cutting. It also reduces the surface area of the cutting meaning that its much easier to give the entire cutting a high level of humidity and reduces the transpiration out of the leaf and the possibility of stem rot.

The Nodes will be packaged in clear enclosed containers with lightly damp sphagnum moss to help cushion and keep the node fresh. Some nodes may be thicker/larger diameter, while some are younger and less thick. These containers can also be used to propagate the nodes. By poking some holes in the top and sealing it, the cuttings will benefit from higher humidity levels that are difficult to achieve in the home.

NOTE: ("No Variegation" Cuttings will include 2 Cuttings to increase the probability of one forming variegation in the future, but there are no guarantees of future variegation.)
Cuttings:
***Unfortunately pictures of the exact cutting you will receive cannot be sent as the cuttings are chosen and cut at time of shipping.***

Variegation Grades (Pictures Show the general levels of variegation for each grade):
 
1.) No Variegation: No Variegation shown. All of our monsteras come from the same mother plants and are the same variety but sometimes the plants form leaves that do not have any variegation. They are still a cutting off a variegated monstera and are genetically inclined to form variegation but may or may not. There is no way of knowing. NOTE: ("No Variegation" Cuttings will include 2 Cuttings to increase the probability of one forming variegation in the future, but there are no guarantees of future variegation.)

2.) Light Variegation: Some Variegation streaking shown in the stem.

3.) High Variegation: High Variegation shown in the stem.


Rooting:
Care Tips will be included with the cutting. The most important part is that the cuttings receive high humidity (70%-90%). This can be achieved by regular misting or some kind of enclosed container such as the provided container the cutting is shipped in. It can either be rooted in potting mix, water or the spagnum. If the cutting dries out, the stem will begin to shrivel and becomes prone to stem rot.
