My monstera Swiss cheese plant is growing well but seems to be tilting to the side. Should I add some type of support in the pot?

    I’d add a moss pole. That’s what I’ve done with mine.

    Just know those can be quite a bit of maintenance! It can also root to a plank

      Are you referring to the moss pole when you say “those can be quite a bit of maintenance!”?

      I believe that is what they mean. Moss poles do require a lot of upkeep. You could also use a trellis or start with a small piece of wood.

      Okay great! That was going to be my next question. What else could I use.

      Hmm. I guess I’m doing it wrong then. I just got an extendable “moss pole” from Amazon and stuck it in the pot. Then I loosely tied the plant to the pole with a bit of twine in a few places and let it go. I don’t fiddle with it. When it gets longer, I’ll tie it up a bit more, maybe extend the pole. Other than that, she’s no trouble at all.

      Oh you have a coco pole! For the sphagnum poles - the arial systems really root into it so that has to be kept moist.

      Thank you! Maybe I’ll try a small trellis or stick to start. Thanks for your help!

    I habe two bamboo poles in mine. My sister's plant is huge (almost four years old), and she has several bamboo poles in hers.

    Moss pole these. Its leaves will grow bigger. Especially if you cut it in half every once in a while. The Sydney plant man did a video on it
