I have developed a real addiction to the monstera family. I have numerous species and multiple of each one. They make me happy. I have several in tissue culture form that are coming along nicely as well. Has anyone gone from teeny tiny to gigantic? How long was the journey? I have no patience! 🥴

I would love to know this too. I have mini alba and crème brûlée monsteras from tissue cultures.

Monstera can take 3 years to mature and get nice big fenestrations. though, it depends on care and environment, most mature monstera you see with double fenestrations are nearly 5 or 6 years old. they take a long time. they'll fruit if you're good enough to them!
