Please help. 🙏  
My beautiful monstera was growing in all directions. One thing that I have learned from several posts here and online is that all the leaves should face front. So I tried my best to do just that using a trellis, but I'm not sure if this is what it should look like. Did I do it correctly? 🤷‍♀️  
I appreciate your expert feedback and happy to make any changes. I love my monstera... ❣️

PS- no idea what to do with the one leaf shooting out to the right. 🙄

It looks great 🙂 the leaves will naturally face the light.

I would just lower the plant tie on the second to right leaf. Closer to the base where the leaf joins is the ideal spot. The closer to the leaf, the more restricted it is to move to the direction of the light.

Thank you so much for the valuable advice. I will make that change right away. 😃

I never thought about that! Gonna go check my tie placement now, lol.

Absolutely nothing wrong here! I prefer leaves all the way around by rotating, so I’m not in the school of thought that they all need to face the same direction. It’s more a preference thing IMO. 🌿

OMG! Your plants are gorgeous 😍  
Love the pilea.. Mine has been struggling. Any tips on how to get it so dense and bushy?

#### PortlyPothos ha respondido el 2024-04-15

I second this. Let grow as is and just occasionally rotate it

#### Surfside Seedling ha respondido el 2024-04-21

Wow, gorgeous! I would love for mine to look like this!

### Leah a commenté le 2024-04-15

I want to know that too! Lol

I would tie them to a moss pole 🤗
