Hi everyone, I rescued this Monstera about a week ago. She’s healthy but very forward leaning, I believe the thick main stem is almost outside the rim of the pot and the whole plant tilts. I have stakes arriving tomorrow, but I’m wondering… should I just stake her as she is, or would it be better to repot and re centre her so she’s upright first? I’d love her to grow straighter with bigger leaves but still look full and lush. What would you do? Any recommendations for either method as well. How best to stake her without causing too much stress. Or tips on repoting and positioning. Thanks! 🪴 🫶 x

    hello friend! i would suggest giving it a good repot considering you’ve received it about a week ago, that way you could get a good look at your root system and give it a good refresh for a rescue :) i would say since you have so many plants in one, it would be best to use a sturdy stake and place it in the pot before you add the soil in order to help it stay upright. you have a beautiful plant and i can’t wait to see its journey into your rescue!!! you got this 🌱

    at some point after the plant settles into the climate completely and learns where your light source is coming from the majority of your leaves will start facing towards the light source and look more uniform, the stakes will help tremendously:) be sure to position the petiole against the stake and not the stem in order to prevent damage from happening on them !
