Hi all!  
I’m seeking advise on if I should consider pruning my monstera. I have had this one for about a year and she has been growing steadily. I have not repotted her since I got her but she is still growing so I am unsure what to do to ensure that she stays healthy.

Considering she takes up a lot of space and you could make her look more “uniform” if you prop a bit, I would do it.  
Otherwise she’s healthy and if it doesn’t bother you, then don’t.  
It may make repotting easier when you inevitably do it.

i wouldnt repot but i would look at root growth because monstera roots are really big. she looks nice and healthy maybe consider a moss pole? if not then you could prune and prop her fs

Thanks!! I think I will put a moss pole in there so that she is propped on something. I’m scared she is going to fall over one day😭
