This monstera thai con has been a ‘zombie plant’ for the longest time. She was overwatered so only the two very green leaves survived. There was zero new growth for about 4/5 months then all of a sudden those two super weird (SUPER cool!!) new leaves popped out. circled in white

They popped out of a random place in the soil instead of growing out connected to the main plant so I was so confused… and the colours and patterns of these new leaves are completely different!

Any idea what this means/why the new leaves look like this?
~ I really like the lighter look!!

    I would have pulled it out of the pot so fast lol

    She is in survival mode and has created a second foot.

    I strongly believe there are two different plants. If not, that means your plant turned itself into a large form albo monstera and I would call it a jackpot.

    The leaf on the right will likely darken up in time. My Thai con just put out a new leaf and it’s lighter than the other leaves. The previous new leaf was exactly the same, looked very light but darkened up over time.

    From what you’ve said, (and from what it looks like) it’s likely there’s two plants here, a Thai and an Albo. As someone else mentioned, it would be amazing if this was actually the same plant and it’s somehow mutated! Keep us updated! 😀
