Hey guys, I am new here. In the beginning of the year a friend of mine game me a plant and I am not sure if it is a pothos but it is not growing. I just repotted to see the roots and everything seems fine. Do you know which plant is it and why is not growing?
It looks to be a monstera. Hope this helps 😊

0 J'aime It’s a young one. It’ll take time for it to develop the “holes” (fenestrations) that they’re known for once it matures. I think it takes at least a year for that to start. As for the stunted growth, perhaps try placing it somewhere brighter to help it photosynthesize easier or give it some Osmocote Slow Release Fertilizer Pellets. It’ll release fertilizer into the soil for the plant whenever you water it, without having to stick to a strict schedule like other fertilizer.

I’d also recommend moving that clip. It may be blocking the new leaf from coming out!
