Monstera Aurea Tissue Culture Plant in Agar Gel, Single Culture for Acclimation and Indoor Growing
Monstera Aurea tissue culture offers a way to grow this variegated cultivar from its early culture stage. Each pack contains one culture in agar gel, ready for you to begin acclimation before moving into regular plant care.
The cultivar features lemon, lime and dark-green tones, including blocks and splashes of yellow variegation. Plan for a covered acclimation setup and a gradual transition to ambient air; this is a hands-on growing project that requires careful preparation.
Allow the culture to adjust to its new environment for 1–2 days before opening. Thoroughly rinse away the agar, transfer the plant to a suitable growing medium and begin covered acclimation. After acclimation, provide bright indirect light, warmth and a well-draining mix kept slightly damp rather than soggy.
