It looks good. The big leaf is adjusting to get more light. When is the last time you fertilized?

Last week and should I rotate?

#### Tellie replied on 2025-05-27

I don’t rotate mine. Only if it’s been an overcast week with little sun ☀️. But all of my leaves are forward. I kinda let it do its own thing. I prune dead leaves when needed and fertilize once a month. Water when needed. It got big fast. It’s a really easy plant to grow in the right conditions. I have no moss pole .
