# Hi all! I have had this monstera since March/ April. It’s put out 4…

Hi all!

I have had this monstera since March/ April. It’s put out 4 new leaves since I got it. She’s growing super big and pretty leaves but I believe this is two plants in one pot. Would you recommend separating them and repotting them into their own pots? Or should I keep them together for a fuller look? I find the leaves are growing in front of each other and crossing over so I hope they are still getting enough light. Any thoughts or tips? x

(ignore she’s looking a little crazy I was in the middle of putting in a new pole).

I think it’s fine, but I would definitely put them in more light or get a grow light

Cool, I have a grow light that hangs over the top. It also usually sits closer to the window x

Here are my monsteras. right now they’re in low light. I think I need to get a grow light for them. they are in separate pots

I just recently heard that sometimes they don’t do as well if they are solo in a pot. I learned this the hard way and when discussing with a local plant shop owner they shared that tip.

I like having two or more in a pot as they’ll grow in different directions and it will look fuller
