# Hi everyone! I recently took custody of this monstera from my friend…

Hi everyone!

I recently took custody of this monstera from my friend as she moved away for the summer and had asked me to look after it. Before she left, the plant had been neglected a bit and so I’ve made a promise to try and get the plant back to fighting shape. However when i received it I noticed these brown spots and there is slight yellowing of some of the leaves. It is my first time looking after this kind of plant and I want to do a best of job that I can, does anyone know what has caused this? Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated :D

I’d change the soil to a well draining soil and make sure that you fertilizing, it looks like the leaves are starting to yellow around the edges which typically means that the plant isn’t receiving enough nutrients

Also get it a moss pole to support the large leaf ☺️
