Hey guys I’ve never seen this before! My monstera deliciosa is growing what seems like a second leaf out of the initial leaf. Lmk what you think or if you’ve seen it before.

Can you post another picture of it? I’m having a hard time understanding what’s happening.

#### Ben replied on 2023-09-19

Yes. It’s hard to explain, the leaf has 2 mid rib veins so it’s almost like 2 leaves from the same stem.

You got yourself a little transcription issue there friend! I don’t know how to influence plant genetics but I wouldn’t worry too much about it. Of course others may have a differing opinion 🤓

### Whitt commented on 2023-09-19

I’ve seen it on other domestic plants. Flowers, veggies etc.

#### Ben replied on 2023-09-19

Thanks! I’m not too worried about I, I think it’s actually pretty cool

### Liv commented on 2023-09-20
