About

Monstera adansonii 'Aurea' is a golden-variegated sport of the ever-popular Swiss Cheese Vine, in which the characteristic fenestrated leaves are marked with irregular patches of buttery yellow rather than the usual white. The chimeric variegation ranges from fine speckling to bold half-moon sectors depending on the leaf, and the natural perforations still punch through both the green and yellow tissue. It retains the same vigorous, fast-climbing or trailing habit as the standard species, making it an easy-going centrepiece for a hanging basket or totem despite the added rarity of its colouring.
