They’re so pretty!!! 🤩 Mine has been a diva!! 😅. But I think she’s finally acclimating a year later lol

I’m scared!! I’m new to plants but I keep seeing everyone freak out about them in my local plant groups and I see them online for $60 so I figured it was the last one, might as well! I’d love any tips!

Get it on a moss pole and put it the brightest indirect light you can give! Wish you the best! Update later 🤗

I purchased my pink princess, white princess \& even my Thai con monsteras from my local grocery stores for $30 and under. Honestly you just have to check them before you make your decision on the buy. I usually check for the healthiness of the plant, any new growth or potential new growth \& then I kinda pick around the soil for any bugs (cause let’s be real, I don’t have the patience for a pest issue with my littles causing chaos lol) but if all is good, GET HER! When we get home I don’t typically let them acclimate before repotting cause 9x out of 10 the ones I get don’t have good air flow and are pretty drenched so I try to get them into good soil as soon as possible in case of any root rot. Then I just give them a quick little shower before their new fresh soil, spray with some insecticide cause I’m super paranoid lol then I leave in quarantine for about a 3-4 weeks by a window or under an auto timer grow light just depending on where their quarantine is gonna be at the time. But all of my babies from those stores are doing AMAZING and THRIVINGGG, giving me new beautiful leaves like crazy. You’d be surprised what you can find at those stores 🩵

$15?! What a steal! I dropped $40 at Home Depot on one a few days ago
