# I got this plant ( a monstera monkey leaf) a couple months ago and…

_Posted by Els on 2025-08-30_

I got this plant ( a monstera monkey leaf) a couple months ago and have since moved to a new place and I think with all the moving I accidentally neglected her a little but now I’m settled I would really appreciate some advice on how to get her back to being healthy 💚 I’m pretty new to plants so I’m not too sure what is wrong with her but I would love to learn more on how to fix her up 😊

If you think it was the neglect that caused it, just make sure to show her a little extra love. Prune the bad things away, give her a nice big drink, perfect amount of light, etcetera.
