# I’ve repotted my monstera Nessie a couple of times since I’ve had…

_Posted by Heather O on 2025-06-25_

I’ve repotted my monstera Nessie a couple of times since I’ve had her. She grows quickly in this spot. However, she keeps pulling her support forward and I’m afraid she will eventually fall over. I’ve used moss poles in the past and now I’m using a 2x4. Does anyone have advice on how to anchor or support a big girl like this?

Maybe try a wood plank

Try angling the plank away from the window so the weight falls backwards, not forwards. I also suggest having more than one plank for a beast like her. she looks beautiful by the way! so jealous!
