# My monstera is currently putting out new leaves but they are much…

_Publicado por s. el 2023-06-15_

My monstera is currently putting out new leaves but they are much smaller than the largest leaf (the right one) and I’m wondering what is happening? Is there a reason she’s pushing out smaller leaves? There’s three other leaves emerging and I can’t really tell if they will be any bigger than the one in the photo (the left) or slightly bigger.

Any help is appreciated! I’ve been a plant parent for a little over a year and I’m still learning!

Just an idea but try adding some extra drainage to your soil mix as well, like chunky wood bark and perlite. I did this with my recent monsters and instantly she put out a much bigger, more holey and happy leaf! 😋
