# I just repotted my first and dream Monstera esqueleto! I've had her…

_Posted by Lulu on 2026-05-27_

I just repotted my first and dream Monstera esqueleto! I've had her for only 1 month. I did some traveling, so once she got to her forever home, I waited a week and finally got her out of her nursery to a 2-inch bigger pot. When should I expect her to start making new leaves? I'm anxiously awaiting and have her on a grow light :) ALSO do I fertilizer her now or only when she starts to grow new leaves?

It’s best to give her a chance to acclimate to one thing at a time. Since you just repotted her I would recommend waiting a couple weeks or more to fertilize. Godspeed! 💚💚

You are so lucky! This one is on my wish list as well, I love how they mature
