Looking good (I do actually think the leaf may be smaller than the ones before it but it’s completely normal sometimes they just throw out smaller leaves!)

That’s what it seems like

Transition stress related (from Walmarts outside to my inside environment…?

I don’t think it’s stress I think the plant is just throwing out a smaller leaf, nothing to be worried about my Thai con did that a few times

Hoping for his first fenestration! Maybe I gotta wait for the one after this one…?

Is there any like holes on the leaf? Sometimes you can tell before it’s fully unfurled

Herman is gorgeous and you’ve got to love his name. This is my Charlotte. Her first leaf did unfurl fenestrated. I could tell before it fully unfurled so maybe you’ll see it as well.
