Help, chance of variegation? The


Hi, I’m new to this whole thing but I saw some monstera albos reverted for cheap. Anyone with some experience knows if from these pictures they might give out variegated leaves?

Ps. Pictures are from 2 different pots that the seller has to offer!

    Idk… the stems that have the white stripe don’t have more nodes to cut back and try for variegation. If it is going for ridiculously cheap I would go for it just to try, but no guarantee:(

    Puc 3 and 4 I do see an axillary bud, but it’s pure white, so that will grow pure white leaves and likely die quickly. Look for bean shaped bumps on the nodes opposite aerial roots. These axillary buds will give you a general idea of the variegation you can expect from that cut. For example, all green buds are all green plants, all white buds are all white plants, half white half green half moon leaves, blotchy green and white blotchy variegation. Those tiny axillary buds tell you a lot.
