# Hello My dog recently knocked over my monstera plant and one of the…

_Posted by Kieley on 2024-07-03_

Hello

My dog recently knocked over my monstera plant and one of the babies broke off I have had it in soil and keeping it moist like I do my others and it seems to be growing from two nodes. Will this continue to grow? If so what should I do? Should i cut it right under the node and pot it? Or will not just die eventually? It has no actual roots at bottom since they broke off when it fell but would hate for it to die.

Any advice would be great. Thanks in advance!

The aerial roots looks pretty healthy you can pot it in soil or either place it in water until the roots mature more, i will cut above both of the aerial roots let it callous and place it on water
