Hello All, I just read an article which said that metal mesh poles are better than plastic for Monsteras. I am thinking it would be difficult to repot/divide. Has anyone had experience with the metal mesh! TIA - much appreciated!

Eek look at this new growth!! Looking for great self-watering moss poles. Any recommendations?

First new leaf of a gifted albino cutting (previously rooted in water). It has started to unfurl at less than half the size of the other two. I know they grow as they harden, but does this mean it’s unhappy in this spot?

My monstera leaf was twisted and I wondered what was going on. Then I realised a new leaf was growing so it’s probably searching for the light. Should I repot? Or wait for the leaf to grow? All my leaves are growing in different directions.

Hi I am getting ready to put my parent's house in the market and they have a beautiful big outdoor monstera. Can I take cuttings? Would love to have one at my own house. How long will just a cut leaf last in an arrangement? Sorry for the poor photo quality Also: it is VERY root bound and has sent out a lot of aerial roots into the nearby soil. What should I do with it?

Help!! Is this a normal part of the leaf sheaths drying up or is it an early stage of stem rot? I really love this monstera and don’t want it to die! The outer edges of the most brown sheath are crispy (second photo) but the stem behind it feels like the same texture as the rest of the plant. It isn’t soft or mushy, but I’m worried it might be spreading? If it is, what should I do? It’s in normal potting soil with drainage.

I have two small mints and have pushed an all white leaf. One is just barely starting a new one and it looks to be all white as well. Think they’ll make green or should I cut them back?? They’re so young. Were TCs and I think I had them in too much light.

When I first bought my monstera, this leaf had physical damage. Otherwise it’s perfectly healthy and hasn’t been given me any problem. Now the plant is maturing nicely, and putting out new, fenestrated leaves, I’m thinking about chopping this one so a new, healthier one can grow in its place. Does this sound like a good idea? Will it promote new growth? Any tips on how to prune it? Or should I leave as is?

Hey everyone. I’ve been propagating a Monstera and I want to know if this is enough of a RuPaul to be placed in soil or should I continue to leave it in water?

I repotted this root bound monstera one week ago and it’s lost 4 leaves which had completely yellowed. And more are yellowing. What could be the issue? I haven’t watered it yet since the repot.

Reunited. Brosky is even producing morning dew.

The 6 year old monstera I rescued from my work. It was in a super bright dealership show room and definitely acclimated to direct sun over the years, dry as a bone, no drainage pot but surprisingly healthy! I worked there for 5 years and I didn’t even know it was there 😢

“Baby” Mosty two years later. How do I rein him in a bit? He’s going for his jungle size.

This is Brosky. He’s had a good summer outside. He’s trying to catch up with his big bro.

I am in need of Adansonii advise! I just got this cutting last weekend from marketplace and it started to have yellowing/browning tips and I realized the roots were root bound and rotting in the moss it was in. I was able to trim away the rotted roots, and I didn’t know what to do next so I just put the remaining roots in water with some rocks just to provide a little structural support. Any advise I am a first time monsters owner and very new plant parent 😅😅😅 first picture is when I got it and then next is from yesterday post rescue mission

I cut my white monster back as it was reverting - it seems to have 2 new growth points??

Help — Sad Monstera :( I got my first monstera a week ago, and I only just watered him for the first time today. He was very green when I first got him, but he’s starting to get a bit yellow on some leaves and even has some brown spots. He is still very green overall, but I’m worried I’m doing something wrong. He is in front of a north facing window, only watered once so far. I made sure the water drained out for 15+ minutes when I watered him. Help??
