# Does she need help? I got this Monstera Adansonii about a month ago…

_Posted by Heather on 2024-03-09_

Does she need help? I got this Monstera Adansonii about a month ago and she’s already put out these 2 leaves, but they haven’t completely unfurled? The lower one has been out for at least a week and a half now. I also noticed this bottom leaf is still a little curled under. She was sitting in some soil that I think held moisture for too long; I noticed some white fuzz on the surface, so I repotted 3 days ago into a mix of soil, perlite, and orchid bark. I haven’t watered again since repotting to give it a chance to not be so wet. None of the roots looked black though, aside from one small higher up one that looked like maybe an aerial root forming? So, is the curling alarming?

Curling is from a lack of humidity  
I would just place it near a humidifier
