my first monstera \<3 what a journey, bought her from ikea. Randomly decided to put her into leca, of course lost some leaves during the transitioning. But take a look at those roots ! It took her 1 month to hit the water reservoir, I repotted her back into position so the roots won’t hit the water. I just wanted to show some appreciation to my monstera \<3 she also has a baby who’s doing amazing as well !
