I have a tissue culture coming in today of an albo monstera. PLEASE ANY ADVICE IS GREAT!! Thank you!

Problem Monstera Update: I decided to name it Betsy, and when I was looking over it today I noticed that it was growing I new leaf after not producing any new growth in the last few months. I’m hoping this means that it’s feeling happy and healthy!

Gloria is very happy in her new pot, she popped 5 new leaves since! All the leaves have nicely positioned themselves towards the window but that leaves a gap on the side. I am not sure what to do about it. Any idea?

Is this type of lean normal? Got her for free, sun burnt and only one “healthy” leaf. She grew this one after I repotted out of bad soil. Any tips besides changing the moss pole for something better? (I tried to get something better than this moss pole yesterday but my plant store was closed)

help! my beloved monsteras leaves are turning black and brown, and are all starting to droop. i recently moved home for the summer from university and it’s a lot closer to the window before. is this due to sun exposure? is there anything i can do to fix it? should i get rid of the damaged leaves? i’ve never dealt with this in any of my plants before and my monstera is my pride and joy :’(

How did I do on my very first plant surgery!? Most of the leaf seems strong and healthy…I know the white bits are more likely to throw tantrums.🪴😉

Hey, I’m new to this group. Just wanting to know if it’s time for me to use a moss pole for this plant. Ps I just repotted this plant.

Herman’s leaf drama saga continues! Only this leaf is throwing a fit, the others seem very happy! I, about 2 days ago, removed the water from the reservoir. The top inch of soil still feels moist now. I’ve heard suggested to trim off the brown part…is that right? Any other assistance is appreciated!🪴🙏

Hello all, I rescued this baby monstera, and she’s given me 2 new leaves from having only 2 (very floppy leaves). She’s gotten to the point where I’m thinking I may need to give her some support. But I’m a little lost! Can anyone advise where to attach her? Please just draw a circle and repost the picture, as I’m a visual learner! Thanks so much in advance, I really want her to do well and I’ll appreciate any help! :)

His first fenestration 😃😃🤩🤩. I let out a little squeal of joy when I saw it and I think the contractors working in my house think I’m crazy lol. IYKYK

Good morning! My monkey mask has been doing very well putting off new leaves and trailing beautifully. The last couple months though leaves are yellowing and now new leaves are unfurling with browning spots. What’s going on?

Just learned that Herman, my Monstera Thai Constellation, was created by scientists in Thailand thru tissue culture working for years to get that particular variegation!!! Woah 🤯 Way to go guys…they are freaking beautiful!!!

Just adopted this giant unwanted monstera from the high school. It’s so gangly that it can’t stand on its own. What do I do?

😢 😢 😢 I put Big Leaf outside for a few days, thinking the sunlight and warmth would be a treat. The other two leaves on the plant are great. Do I cut this giant off? Please don’t kick me out of the group for burning her!

I bought this 7 months ago. It has grown, and new ones are growing as well. It's an easy plant to care for.

This is like day 3 of Herman’s great unfurling! How long can a leaf take to open fully!? I’d imagine it takes much longer once he matures and they are bigger…

Apparently Herman thinks he is a mushroom farmer!!🪴🤪 Also, someone left this little ducky in the parking lot of the gas station I work at…dogs get dog toys, right!? Sooo, yeah!

Welcome my new Thai Constellation Monstera. I can’t wait until she’s all grown up!

Still a bitter sweet story with Herman, new leaf is his first fenestrated one! That leaf in the top of the picture has been gradually getting worse! What can I do to help his happiness!?
