Hi, all! I posted yesterday because I’m a first time owner of a monstera! I got great advice for potting soil and for buying a moss pole so I just potted it in a 6” terracotta pot.

First time using a pole, so does it look ok? Photo from yesterday shows how horizontal one of the leaves was lying, so just want to make sure I’m using this correctly!

THANK YOU!
