# After two years, Monster has fenestrations! Granted, it's only her…

_Posted by My Leafy Life on 2026-07-07_

After two years, Monster has fenestrations! Granted, it's only her two newest leaves but it's a start. 🙂

She went from 6 to 8 inches to 2 feet 2 inches tall in that time. If she gets much taller, I'm not sure where I'm going to put her or how I'm going to water her.

What do people do when they get so tall and heavy you can't carry them? Is there a way to keep them smaller without killing them?

I’ve been slowly converting my collection to clear nursery pots, they’re a lot lighter to lift \& carry. I have a few friends that have their giant ones on wheels \& they just wheel them right to the shower.

That would be great but, unfortunately, I don't have a shower on the main floor. 🙂
