Prop with a moss pole, and it looks like it needs more water.

They tend to droop when they need water, and moss poles to help them stay up help too

it likely needs more light and some kind of support. i would use a trellis for a plant so bushy

Monsteras are usually sold with multiple plants in the same pot. They do this to make it look bushy. But it will eventually reach a point where you can no longer contain it. A plant, or maybe a couple, need to be attached to a moss pole. Problem is they have a front and back. Back should be against pole and attached by stem, not leaf. You have multiples going all different directions. I had to separate mine a couple months ago. I had 7 in one pot. It was a large mess. Twelve inch pot. Their goal is to grow vertically and develop huge leaves. I gave the extras away. I attached two to a moss pole. Check YouTube for some videos about adding the pole. I included an old pic of my plant. It was much larger when I split it.

Thank you so much! I will try this technique and see how it goes, I have one pole but wasn’t sure how to add it, I’m going to order another and split the plant as well.
