Top 10 houseplants with stable variegation

Variegated leaves come in all kinds of colours and patterns. We all know the gorgeous white chunks on the Monstera Variegata, but this plant has the chance to revert back to a full green plant. Once having such a plant in your care, that’s not what we want to happen of course. Maybe you would like to adopt such a handsome variegated plant, but prefer to play it safe with a plant that can’t revert. That is why we collected these top 10 houseplants with stable variegation. Be ready to be amazed!

Monstera Thai Constellation

We top of this list with a very desired and absolutely stunning houseplant, the Monstera Thai Constellation. The Constellation has a white or creamy variegated pattern. This can appear as speckles and bigger chunks. Combined with her huge fenestrated leaves, she is really a showstopper!

Maranta Silver Band

This prayer plant knows how to shine! This is the Maranta Silver Band, and as her name already hints, she has a silver band in the centre of her leaf. The underside of her leaves are coloured burgundy, which compliments the other colours perfectly!

Philodendron Brasil

Would you like to go for a variegated plant that grows fast and has an adorable leaf shape? The Philodendron Brasil would be a great fit! This cutie has a lime stripe in the centre of her leaf, which really pops on the remaining dark green foliage. This beauty gets brighter from more light exposure, fascinating right?
