Probably you😀, stressing over your monstera and alocasia. Chances are they will be fine.

I hope so. I was not the most gentle doing it 😂

They should be perfectly fine but I totally get that I was so scared when I chopped my Thai con

I feel you. Split my monstera earlier this summer. It worked out great and now I need to give away at least one because it’s like a jungle in here! Good luck!

So far they seem okay! Gave my dad one of each aswell just to get rid of the smaller ones 😂

I did lose a couple of older leaves, but that’s to be expected. Here’s the big one still going strong!
