# New monstera mother. This girl was in bad shape when I bought her on…

_Posted by Emily C. on 2024-12-29_

New monstera mother. This girl was in bad shape when I bought her on Offer Up. She has not been repotted. She has new leaves and growth since I utilized stands and fertilized, however some leaves have brown tips and holes. Any thoughts, advice, or suggestions would be so very appreciated! She’s beautiful and I want to be sure she continued to thrive.

The entire planet itself looks very healthy. The ends of the leaves are brown, probably due to humidity so I would suggest increasing the humidity in the room that it’s in either by humidifier or by missing your plants more often.
