Super excited for my newest addition! My first ever monstera 😁. Any care tips? Also a couple of the smaller, newer leaves are not looking too good (a couple have brown spots and one has a tear). Should I trim these leaves off? Thanks!

As a general rule, if a leaf is mostly green, it is still photosynthesizing and benefitting the plant. Congrats on the beautiful monstera!

Hi, your plants look good and so vibrant! About the brown spots on the leaves- I had some show up too on a few leaves, in fact, there’s one tiny one now. But in the past I just left them alone and they either disappear on their own, or closed up. I didn’t cut them off. Hope that helps!
