She looks like she wants to climb! You’ll need a trellis, moss pole, or something else that she can get support from. But first, she probably needs a repot: the current pot looks pretty small. Use some well-draining soil. Reply if you have any questions!

Well I can’t tell how big your pot is, but don’t size it up too much. Maybe an extra 3 or 4 inches in diameter. The pot should also be deeper than your current one. For soil, you can get a standard potting mix. To give it better drainage, I recommend mixing perlite, orchid bark, or something similar in.

This is very true. The standard for upsizing pots is no more than 2 inches in diameter at a time, but I was just looking at the pot in the photo and thought that 2 inches might not be enough 😅 looks to be quite a small pot. Really, it’s up to your discretion.

It looks like she straining to get some more light! You could try getting her a nice moss pole, a repotting, and moving her closer to the window!
