Would love to see an update video about that cut monstera in a future video! I'd like to see if the next leaf it puts out has preserved the variegation more or less
Does anyone know if there has been an update?
I was thinking the same id love to know
I would like to see if the variegation back on after u cut the revert part. Please give us an update
Do you know if this technique applies to a golden pothos?
When?
I literally LOLed with the groping the petial thing.
me too.
I'm hoping to get one in like 10 years, when the craze is hopefully died down. Then this video will be very useful 😁. You look gorgeous by the way. What do you so with your hair to come out that way? I know it's not a beauty channel, but I am curious.
haha! same here! :D
it might even be closer to 5 years
Give it another year now and you’ll be able to get one in the double digits!
To liga pure I got one of these off eBay a very well verigated and with a very long aerial route one leaf cutting for $200 and I will say it was worth it because a year later I have a decent size plant with four leaves
@rhaelaettner9641 happy for you! I got an albo cutting highly variegated for 30 dollars last week prices def dropped😊
My career was shooting video at a medical school. I did grand rounds, surgeries, gate studies, remote locations, etc. Your camera work is great. A lot of times camera operators don't stay on shots long enough for the viewer to really see what's there. You have a great sense of what you want in the shot and how to do it. Your videos are a pleasure to watch. Now I want even more plants.🥰
Ok.... now your grow light episode! thanks :)
This is another reason why I love Friday evening so much. You rock Kaylee !
Got a bottle of Silica on the way!! I bought a gorgeous Thai con a couple weeks ago. It has a teeny brown speck and I started flipping out! I did a buncha research (including this very informative video) and led on gett'n me some Silica. Thanks for the info!
Such useful information Kaylee! Thank you for all your advice! And you look lovely as always ❤️
What is your thoughts on variegation on relation brightness? I have 4 albos for about 9 months, and noticed that when they are placed in a high light area the variegation increased. One plant just gave me a full white leaf... however the 1 plant I placed in a medium light shade have reverted completely.
This was such a helpful video. Thank you! It's also so nice that you and the plants are so nice to look at ☺️
Thank you for all your wonderful tutorial videos!
Yesss I wish I knew this prior as I have a variegated borsigiana that's been reverting for the past 2 months or so time to snip snip, another amazing video kaylee
Do you know if this technique applies to a golden pothos?
@@nolaray1062After watching multiple variegation maintenance videos it applies to all variegated plants.
@@warmccl thank you!
Loved this! I was literally just thinking about trying to find a video like this! 😍
So very helpful! Thank you for the awesome info ♡
Great video! Would love to see an updated video of how that plant is doing, once it’s grown a new leaf or two obviously 😊
Your videos come out early Saturday morning here in NZ which is the perfect way to kick off my weekend 😅
I want to go to “plant jail”!! Imagine they would have us care for plants all day everyday!!!! Sounds good to me!
Hahaha love that
I love putting honey at the bottom, never thought of adding wax. I defiantly learned a lot from this video. Thank you for sharing!
I had a Monstera once. By the time I realised it was clinging to the wallpaper by it's aerial roots it was to late. Had to redecorate!
Suggestions for future videos? Did I mention Rare Plant Index - Aglaonema?
Great video as always. Look forward to the next one.
Agreed on the aglaonema video
Kaylee looks gooddd in this video.. came back here to get a better look at your monstera again!
Hi Kaylee! Can you do an update on this please? Did you get more variegated leaves on either the mother or the cutting? Love your videos! 💕
This video came at the perfect time for me! Thank you
Best content on TH-cam!! I ❤️ your channel!
This video is EXACTLY why I ADORE you!
Super fab info, many thanks 🌺
Very very useful information, thanks so much 🙏🏼
Well said, very informative video. Thank you😊
Love your explanations!
I love to listen to you. Sympathic woman you are and thank you for all this information. ❤️
This is so helpful!
Yes!!!!! I needed this video!!
Thank you! This video is great. I have a small variegated monstera cutting that I got from the web and the tip of the aerial root is rotting. Should I cut it or leave it there? Thanks for any advice!!
beautiful plant
What do you do with the wax? Leave it on when planting in soil?
This was so helpful! I bought a plain green monstera and then it started to produce variegated leaves! I think it’s an albo. After the first variegated leaf, it produced another plain green leaf, then another variegated one. It’s not very strong right now so if the next leaf is green I’ll do this and hopefully I can get it looking like yours one day!
I’ve had the same thing happen, just one partially variegated leaf so far!
Omg you guys are so lucky 😭
I love your Little Fleck leaf- adorable!
Hi Kaylee, nice video. Got a question have you ever grown a second leaf from those one big leaf cuttings? And is there a chance to get a green leaf after first variagated leaf if for example I buy a leaf cutting?
Love this video, can do an update for this plant how is the verigation going on?
THANK YOU! Very informative video. I can see reversion happening in some of my tradescantia (white & green). Now I know what to do! I feel like my brain just got a little more variegated! Lol. I've never tried wax to seal off the raw ends. I may have to try that. Just this morning I had to perform emergency surgery on one of my little monstera babies that wasn't doing well and realized it was rotting below the node. Cut it off the rotting base stem, dipped it in cinnamon and left it out to dry a bit before I stick it in a glass of rainwater or moss. Fingers crossed. Thanks again Kaylee Ellen for another great video! :D
Hi..kaylene..Very good explaning plant..move on a lot plant...😀
Thanks for this awesome video! Would you please consider doing a rare plant index video about Sansevieria?
Hey 👋🏼 I just bought a single leaf cutting with nearly no white (maybe like 5-10% white). The stemm has a bit of white in it. Do you think my chances are good that the next leaf will have more white? And if not, is there any possibility that it will come back?
Thanks!
Hi Kaylee, thanks for the awesome video!
Can i ask, if cut off large parts of the monstera, will the parent plant grow new stems? or will it just stay the same way?
Thanks for this interesting video😃
I wonder if the reverted leaves once cut off and rooted could generate variegation back😮
We often see people selling at crazy amount some cuttings with very few variegation! I assume they sell those kind of cuts they made as their plants are reverting
Can this be applied to cuttings? I bought a monstera cutting with half and half verigation in the stem but the leaf still came out green. Do I wait it out?
Can you air layer these? Or just add some spag moss right to the stem before you cut?
Ive heard that arial roots tend to rot and some people cut them off to a little nub. Whats your thoughts on that?
Very interesting thanks
I'm not lucky enough to own this plant yet. However, if or when I get one I now know how to preserve variegation. Thanks for sharing☺👍❤.
What should i do if my pot houses 3 stems of wich only 2 seems to produce verigation?
I recently bought it and i'm a novice, so i don't know if i need to adress it?
Is it safe to keep them together, as they seem to be separate?
I'm not really sure if they are, but if they do connect it's below the soil.
I don't mind how it looks, i just don't want it to affect the verigated stems!
do you use these fairy lights to give your plants some extra light or is it just decoration? i wonder if it has some benefits
Does the same apply to philodendron white princess? Thanks for the useful info
wow, helpful tips - I only heard of using wax from Kaylee. Please kindly elaborate more - so you wax the cutting bit and plant it straight to moss or potting mix?
Clip light link not working. I want to order it and I’m in the US. How do I transfer the same product to the US Amazon
After cutting can it dip into hormone root powder then after one hour seal it with candle before water rooting ?
Thank youuuu!! 🙏
Woww i like your plant 😍😍😍👍👏👏
Hi Kaylee Ellen, Should I cut off an all White leaf and at the node or previous node? I recently got a small Monstera borsigiana albo very well rooted rooted cutting/small plant, but the leaves have seen better days as a lot of the variegation turned brown/crispy in shipping. Its pretty sad looking as some of the leaves are quite small now. The largest bottom leaf is the greenest with streaky/speckled variegation without fenestrations, the next four leaves with fenestrations are half and half to 3/4 white, and it just shot out its first leaf since I've had it, but its an all white leaf without fenestrations that is quite small/juvenile looking. I know because this leaf has no chlorophyl (and because of your video) that it will die. Should I cut it off? Or, just let it die? Should I prune the whole plant back like in your video as if it was an all green leaf to where the variegation is 1/2 and 1/2? What can I do to encourage it not to spit out all white leaves? I am wondering if I bought a cutting that was pruned off because it got too white? What can I do to save my plant? (I make my own aroid potting mix, use supplemental lighting and have humidifiers for my plants.) Thank you in advance for your reply! I really appreciate your videos as I find it rather hard to get accurate (any?!) information on aroids!
Thank you so much
Just chopped my thai constellation yesterday. I also chopped some of the roots because they’re very large and healthy. Will the chopped roots also grow shoots eventually? I think the answer is yes but I’m just worried that I did the wrong thing because I haven’t seen videos or articles about growing from thai constellation chopped roots. Thanks!
I bought a Cutting of a variegated Monstera and it turned green within the first new shoot. is it possible to cut it back and get a new shoot or will the original cutting just stay the same without a new node?
I have a baby plant that was just one leaf it just recently gave me a second but it has very low variegation does this apply?
I have a cutting. The first leaf was super tiny and the second leaf was actually double fenestrated but both are all green. Is there any hope for me??
How will the new leaves from the mother plant be in size and splitting, will it start over with baby like leaves? :)
Thanks for a really helpful video! I've just bought a cutting similar to the one you propagated. It has the tiniest fleck of variegation on it. Is there a way to increase the variegation as it grows into a new plant? I'm hoping I haven't just bought myself a regular monstera :(
How is it going? :)
Were you able to increase the variegation?
Thank you. I've just cut my albo monstera and hope it will shoot out more variagation 🙏🏽 Here in Western Australia you'd be lucky to pick a cutting up for nothing less than $700 😱😱 madness! 🥴🤯
omg 700 for a cuting ? damn
@@dennyburhan7985 yup! They had xmas specials for a two leaf MB straight sale anything between $1K upto $1300 🤷🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️.. madness!
I’m in southwest I’ve gotten two cuttings for less then 500 both established with good variegation
@@Senorodeo yep, they've gone done in price 😊. So glad for plant lovers. Me and my daughter in law have a few between us now 🤦🏻♀️😂.
Love your eye makeup! How do you feel about growth hormone powder? I've heard it is good for preventing disease/rot even if it isn't entirely needed to help a cutting root.
I use a cotton swab dipped in 3% hydrogen peroxide on the cut tip/stem and it really helps prevent any infection/rot while it dries!
I bought a single leaf and nod , I got it growing really good in less than a year I have 7 leafs and non have any variegation . Do I wait or should I go ahead and propagation.
Nice video.
Any update on the plant you cut to see if there's more variegation or not?
Very helpful, thank you! Any suggestions on how to keep white variegated leaves healthy..my standleyana white part is browning :( . Would it need more humidity or light for supporting the white?? 🌱
Add silica to the watering/feeding. Keeps the white white.
This was so useful, thank you so much! :)
How to sustain variegation of homa plants? My var homa is not variegating anymore
It would be nice to have some tips on growing conditions to preserve variegation. Like if your plants variegation is declining prune and then reposition to a different location like with higher light?? Is the decline just inevitable or is that an indication of less than ideal growing conditions? I would love some clarification on that💕🤗 thanks for another great video!
I agree this part is super confusing to me but I would assume from her video that variegation is random and will happen when it wants. But I'm assuming plants with more variegation need more light (because they tend to have less chlorophyll). That's just my extrapolation though, love to find more info on this from a professional.
The less green it is the more light it needs. It not too much because it can and will burn
Hi There. Love your videos. Do you know if the cuttings will produce another variegated plant?
Will this apply to the variegated albo syngonium? Your videos have helped me so much on my rare plants journey!
variegated albo syngonium i have 8 Plants and all have allways constant variegation so i guess its a Permanent
Well, I have a variegated Monstera with only one variegated leaf and three green leaves that have grown from it. Is it true that if I wait to long the chance of getting a variegated plant after cutting decreases? Because it is Autumn right now and I am scared of taking the risk that my Monstera doesn't grow well in these cold days. Any tips?
So it means that if i wanted to buy a cutting i should stay away from mostly green with minimal variegation right? But look for a healthy cutting with a 50/50 white&green
Your plants are beautiful just like you😁 I collect rare plants and I got prayer plant collection I like to send some special ones to you as a gift...
hallo Kaylee, you told us in some video, that your philodendron Florida Ghost is reverting...only green leaves are growing... could you told something new about it?
is there an update on this plant? i got a variegated monstera top cutting, waited about 8 months for a new leaf to come out, and it's completely green :/
Your hair looks amazing in this video Kaylee😌
Kaylee I am curious to know. If you keep the cuttings and then it grows roots, would the cutting be able to produce a variegated leaf in the future and I'm talking more than 20% variegation. I am sorry I was paying attention to the video but maybe I miss that part
I'm curious to know as well!
what happens with the mother plant. I gather it'll grow a new leaf but I would have liked some detail.
How about the Florida ghost, if it turned all white will it die, having no green/ chlorophile thingy?
I use cinnamon instead of wax. It helps to dry out the stub overnight and also its a decent disinfectant.
Might try wax too. Hm!
Hi Kaylee. Your videos are saving my plants 😅
I just wonder if that cutting did really lose the variegation. (Or is there a chance it could still get more after the cut. ) I have one now that I am thinking of cutting to preserve the variegation. But it really makes me sad 😢
Hi kaylee, thanks for the helpful video. Need some advice.i recently tried to purchase albo from a local grower. When i asked them is this Borsigiana or Deliciosa, they answered that both this is the same,borsigiana is the juvenile form and will remain until declared otherwise. What do u think?
You have probably figured this out by now, but that is not the case. I believe most if not all of these Albos are Borsigiana. Bors. Are pretty much the only Monstera‘s sold although occasionally you may see a deliciosa, but they are all labeled deliciosa. People do not differentiate the two because they are so similar. But I do not think they are at the same plant at different stages. This is my opinion based on research.
In addition to differentiate, the Borsigiana will never get the leaf size, nor the fenestration amount of the deliciosa, although the Borsigiana can increase in leaf size significantly. I have also heard as far as indoor growth that deliciosa do not attach to planks or wood, whereas Bors. Will do so. I do not have a deliciosa to speak of this, but I can attest to the fact that my Albo Borsigiana has attached to a piece of driftwood.
But how are we supposed to bringbavk the white on the reverted green?
I can’t remember what it’s called but the first node you grabbed is I thinkkk a special kind of node that Monstera have, that functions kinda like an elbow or neck. It moves around to follow the sun 🥲
I need an update video on the cutted monstera! I'm scared of cutting mine 😭
my Borsigiana albo reverted to green. chopped off all the green leaves and left the 1 variegated leaf . it’s now sprouting a variegated leaf. thanks for your tip
You have to check for the node and what color it has. Nothing to do with the leaves. A node that has green and white will grow a nicely variegated leaf. If the node is fully green or white then the stem that follows will most likely also be fully green or white.
Hi Kaylee, how do you keep the white leaf so amazingly lush? My monsteras leaves recently started browning... what should i do to prevent to happen? Thank you
Gr33n 50ul too much direct light?
@@breezykneezy7290 Thank you very much... actually i have it in a north east facing window, so i was thinking the opposite.
Hmmm, maybe low humidity? I’m just guessing. I’m by far NOT an expert.
well browning is burning from sunlight. it can't protect itself in a white form. maybe from a heater nearby?
@@breezykneezy7290 no clue... the humidifier is saying over 60%... but it started to get brown at the ends of the white parts of the leaves and is increasing towards the center :(
I LOVE how you did your hair ❤️ the part looks cute this way!
I’ve got two monstera deliciosa that have spontaneously produced variegated leaves. Is there a reason for this? Is this a problem? Will it continue to produce varigation?
OMG that's so cool!!
If you buy a albo cutting that has some Variegation but not a load, what are the chances of the new leaves producing more variegation? Or is there no way of knowing, just pot luck?
I find that too much light can cause my plants to reduce in variagation. My philodendron brasil started to grow plain green leaves, so I cut that leaf off and moved it away from the window......the next leaf was half yellow, half green. Maybe try less sunlight as it produces more chlorophyll.
@Fey in dark the plant thinks it needs more green in order to photosynthesis, so that's why variegation is lessening. Keeping it in light is the right way to preserve variegation.
Do you know if this technique applies to a golden pothos as well? I know it’s a super common plant but it was a gift and the new growth has very little variegation.
hi Kaylee, how to stop the reversion from happening for the second time? Should the plant be moved to brighter place?
I'm pretty sure light doesnt make a difference :( the only way is to keep snipping I think
@@KayleeEllenOfficial wow, thank you so much for replying. Have a great weekend.
is there a way to increase monstera thai constellation variegation?mine do not have much variegation on its leaves
Not really - you can prune back to the highest point of variegation and try and encourage more - other than that I guess it's a waiting game!
Ty very much!! :)
Thanks so much! Where will the new growth on the mother plant come out?
