I bought my Thai constellation on Etsy for $225 about 6 months ago which felt like highway robbery but I think is pretty comparable to standard pricing these days. It came as a small plant with four leaves all nicely variegated but small and since then, when given pride of place in my collection (best sunlight, best care) it has actually shocked me with how fast it's growing and how dramatically the leaf sizes have shot up! It feels like every new leaf has a new one coming on in a matter of days. It's now 8 leaves, each bigger with more fenestrations than the last!! Absolutely love it and would recommend =)

It’s incredible how the market has since changed! I just bought a baby Thai Con with no fenestrations and 3 leaves, it’s about 7-8” tall, and I paid about $300 USD (a really good deal for my area of the US at this time especially seeing as it is shipping from within the states). I also paid about $350 for an albo about 3 months ago. I got such a good deal, again that is for the area I live in, in the states, because Logees nursery considered it a “low variegation plant”. I have one leaf with low variegation, but the top 3 leaves have nice sectoral and marbled variegation and I am totally thrilled with it and personally feel it may have been mislabeled. I do tend to stay away from albos with more than 50% of its leaves having more than 50% white; they scare me! My albo is bigger than the Thai constellation with 4 leaves and some fenestrations on the top 2 of the 4. Lastly, I bought a single node albo “chonk/wet stick” with one tiny root and a visible growth point (just a small green dot when purchased, now just about to finally push out its first leaf!!!) for $150 including shipping, about 3-4 months ago. It’s now April of 2022 for reference. I am super excited to grow all of my variegated monsteras. I have had and continue to have fun growing my green deliciosa as well! Be well and thank you for all of the info!

She grows a lot of succulents herself she has her nursery and she does a lot of desert roses and then he cuts to a desert rose she seals with would take glue and she also seals her cuttings with what type glue. They don't rot that way and you don't have to let the cutting sit out and harden off.

You can wax a cutting wound as soon as it’s made to aid in the prevention of rot or to possibly deter boring insects. I’m assuming she used paraffin. Just warm it up until it’s completely malleable but not so hot that it will scald the plant. Then smear over the wound and let dry.

Thai constellations are definitely easier to come across in Australia now than what they were a couple of months ago when I purchased mine. They're even starting to be available to purchase from our biggest hardware stores (for $300 AUD) which is the same price I paid for mine. Then in terms of variegated monstera's.. well they may as well be unicorns. Recently I was watching an auction on eBay where a two leaf cutting with nice variegation went for over $1,300 AUD.. And then if you're wanting a plant with at least four cuttings or/established, you're looking at paying anywhere from $2,000. I wish our plant prices were as cheap as the UK! 🤯
@sarahgiggles94445 жыл бұрын
Something I've noticed is that when looking at Monstera Thai Constellation online is that a huge portion of the plants for sale are coming directly from Thailand, which means there is a real risk of the plant getting stuck at customs and either delayed for days or weeks or thrown out entirely. Many sellers will offer a "documentation" fee for around $30 so that the shipment gets processed properly and quickly, so it's something to keep in mind regarding the true cost of the plant.

Both of these are more expensive in the US and the Albo Borsigiana is a lot harder to find. One fact I like is that the Thai Constellation is a true Monstera Deliciosa. So if you’ve seen massive ones in a nursery somewhere with the giant 2’-3’ leaves and the ruffles on the back of the stems...yeah same plant but with variegation! (See my profile photo for our local nursery’s non variegated monstera).

Just a warning. Thai is EXTREMELY prone to root rot. The plant that I bought was absolutely beautiful. Two days after I bought it I noticed root rot. Over half of the roots had to be removed. I’ve seen countless videos on KZbin about root rot with these plants but thought it was a result of over watering. It seems like they need lots of care. Maybe this is due to the mutation for variegation? Anyway, I’m currently trying to rehab this plant. Fingers crossed 🤞🏽

When you need to trim the albo to keep variegation, does anyone know when/how to do so? I’ve looked for info online and can’t find anything...
@matthewaguilera23095 жыл бұрын
You want to cut the green leaves back to the nearest stem/node that has variegation. Doing this will increase (but not guarantee) the chances that the next leaf that sprouts from that node has variegation.

Question: if you buy an albo borsigiana with a node, roots and multiple leaves but the variegation is limited, less than a quarter of the leaf. Is the plant reverting or there is a good chance it will push out a new leaf with some good variation in it?And can you ask to see the root if the plant is already planted in soil?

I think I’ll wait for the prices to come down.

Look on Etsy. They have a program through klarna that does payments. Just bought a node for $150 but making payments of $48 I don’t see the prices going down for this plant 🤷🏽♀️

Watch yourselves when purchasing these plants on Ebay and other auction sites. I found someone in Germany offering what was obviously a Pothos as a Monstera. Don't know if they purposefully did that or they didn't know what they had.

Wish you'd done some footage of the big Albo Borsigiana! Is that big one your plant? It's amazing! Would love to see it properly or see a photo of it!

'treble' as in triple or three figures, not 'trouble'

Yeah these are crazy expensive in the US right now. A few hundred for a single leaf cutting.
