Elegant, unusual, light: a leaf that looks like it was designed by a famous designer, or painted by a contemporary artist.
Few images encapsulate the mystery of the distant jungle like the large leaves of the Monstera, with their unmistakable wide fissures and perforations.

Of the whole genus, one variety in particular is protagonist of world trends, not only in botany, but also in design; some specimens were recently auctioned for more than $5k.
Monstera 'Albo Variegata' is a unique plant with leaves divided between white and bright green.
The smaller presence of chlorophyll, given the large portion of albino leaf, renders this variety delicate and particularly fickle; part of the fascination that surrounds this plant is the challenge, not intended for everyone, that it poses from a cultivation point of view.

Ila has taken special care in the creation of her own line of Monstera ‘Albo Variegata', because no plant better represents the vocation towards the world of design and Nature.
