My pink princess and her new leaf 🥹 repotted her today as I wasn’t happy with the substrate she came in over a month ago. It seemed to STAY soggy so hopefully she will be happier with more air for her roots.

What kind of soil did you use for her repot?  
Ps: your plant is beautiful

In the UK we have a plant supplier called Grow Tropicals that make their own substrates. It’s specifically made for philodendrons and monstera. It looks like orchid bark, perlite and coco choir however there are other things that I can’t actually tell what they are and they don’t label it either (I assume secret???) 😅 the only thing I do know is they add worm castings to their mix for natural essential nutrients.
