# Hello! My partner and I have this beautiful Monstera Esqueleto and…

_Posted by 🪴Greenie🪴 on 2024-08-08_

Hello! My partner and I have this beautiful Monstera Esqueleto and wondering if it’s ready for us to propagate? If so, where would you advise us cutting from? We are aware we need to cut beneath a node but this is about all we know. Any tips and tricks is welcomed. Thank you in advance!

The photo is just of the top (youngest) part of the plant. There are much larger (older) leaves at the bottom that is not pictured. (White t-shirt is hanging behind plant as backdrop to help make plant more visible in photo).

Anywhere there is a node/aerial root. (I think this is an adansonii, as an aside)

Thank you! Interesting, I googled adansonii and my monstera does look like it could be adansonii. We picked up this plant from Home Depot and the label claimed Monstera Esqueleto perhaps the label is incorrect.?

I bought one of these last Christmas and now I have about 10 full pots. They propagate so fast and easily!
