I have a young Thai constellation monstera that’s currently about 10” tall. It’s grown 2” since I got it a month ago, but I want to give it a moss pole to help it out more. Right now, it’s in a 3” pot. Would I want to move it to something like a 7” pot to give it room to grow with the pole, or would that much soil/moisture be too much for the small amount of roots currently there? I’m looking at getting a moss pole (the kind you fill with sphagnum moss) that’s 3.75” across the front and 23” tall. This is my first time experimenting with a moss pole, so I’m open to any and all suggestions!

Hello! So my albo monstera has been with one leaf for the longest. Can anyone tell if there’s a node or if it’s considered a zombie leaf? Thank you in advance!

Our largest and smallest monsteras. We’ve had this Thai constellation for about a year and a half. It’s been split in half and shared with family and it’s still huge! She’s been brought inside for the winter. And the tiny variegated swiss cheese we’ve had for a couple of months and have already seen so much growth! 🪴

How often do you have to repot your Monstera? I've had mine maybe 1.5 years if that and this is going to be the fourth time. I go up two sizes each time and wait until the roots are bulging the nursery pot as well as coming our of the bottom. I don't want to go too big that it stays too wet.

Hi, I’m new to caring for a Monstera. I bought mine a little while ago, and I realize now that I didn’t do enough research to choose one with a more organized stem structure. The plant doesn’t look very happy, and the stems are growing in all different directions. I’d like to separate and arrange the stems so it looks healthier, but I’m not sure how to do that. I also watched some YouTube videos, but they made it seem like a really complicated process. Could you please give me some advice? Thank you.

Hi! My monstera is a propagation from a friends. I notice the bottom where new leaves would come is brown. A new leaf has grown in and it has brown lines/ is damaged. Any idea what I can do? The rest of the plant is healthy!

My monstera is due for a repot. Right now it’s in a 7.5” pot. What size should I size up to? Also, I’m thinking of adding a moss pole, but my monstera is kind of going in two different directions. If I put one pole in the middle, I’m scared I will break the stems if I tie it back towards the middle. Any advice?? Pics of the front and back to show it growing in two directions :) 🪴

I just tried to replant my monstera and the roots were so packed in that it unfortunately broke/snapped off. Should I try propagating in water to get more roots or just put in a planter and hope for the best? I really hope I didn’t just kill it😢

Hey everyone so I’m really concerned for my monstera it’s starting to get cold and I have no inside space for her . It’s supposed to drop down to the 30’s this week in temperature would that be a problem or should I be good? She been doing good in the 50’s & high 40’s but I don’t know if she survive the 30s . Any recommendations?

Hello! First time Monstera owner here. I’ve had this lovely guy for a little over half a year now and it has been growing tremendously. Has had maybe one or two yellow leaves ever and that was months ago since I moved and it now has a prime sunny spot to live. It has a lot of aerial roots that are already growing inward towards the soil for stability, and is growing new leaves regularly still. I recently added a few loose stakes to encourage upward growth as it was starting to get very bushy and wide. I’m concerned with how thick it is getting and wondering if it is time for a moss pole or something else more secure, or if I need to possibly trim anything (which I would like to avoid). Any suggestions are appreciated!

I have had this monstera for about 6 months and i just noticed this thing popping out. Does anyone know what it could be? It’s not a cataphyll and I don’t think it’s a new leaf since it’s all brown no green. It’s also stuck on I cannot pull it off. Help pleaseeee 😌

hi! So i’m trying to figure out where to chop back on the stem of the white leaf so hopefully new growth happens. you can see that there is some green towards the bottom, so i’m hoping it won’t keep throwing white. where exactly would i chop? i have no problem with my other monsteras, but i feel like im going to mess up with an albo 🥲

Is it too late to repot? Should be time to put this on a coir pole, but a bit worried with it being very close to winter...

My Albo decided to give me a 100% green leaf 😢 so I have moved her into more light and will see what the next leaf does.
