My doggo knocked my new Thai Con while its fresh leaf was trying to unfurl. The new leaf stem bent 😭😭😭 I used a toothpick and tape to support the bent spot and it appears to be continuing to unfurl. 🤞 Fingers crossed that he’ll be ok. 🤞 This is the first leaf with fenestrations too 😮‍💨

I’m hopeful! This technique worked on a mature monstera I was gifted. I just hope it works on this baby
