# Hello, I accidentally dropped a box and it landed on my poor Monstera…

_Posted by Matt on 2025-06-09_

Hello, I accidentally dropped a box and it landed on my poor Monstera breaking one of the stems. The stem is now limp and I have been keeping it upright to try to see if it can heal itself. Any recommendations?
