What do I do to make her look better? 😵💫 I’ve never used a moss pole and tried to tie her on one but I have leaves going in every direction and some are backwards. I have a few leaves folded over on itself and one flimsy sun damaged leaf. It looks pitiful
She honestly looks great! But for more stability to grow upwards I’d def do a pole of some sort. I use these little Velcro bands to tie stems to my poles! Including pic for reference :)
I have some of the plant Velcro coming in the mail so hopefully I can get that done this week 😊 do you have any suggestion on how to tie the leafs that are facing backwards? I see all these beautiful monsteras with all the leaves facing forward and my plant just isn’t doing that 😬
1 likeThat’s great! And hmm so mine is the same way with most of the leaves being forward but some face other ways (maybe it’s the way it was originally potted) - I guess when tying them you can try to tie them facing the direction you like if the stems allows for that LOL also I think they go in the direction of the sun so maybe rearranging how the plant is facing 🤷♀️

Are your plants all facing the same way in the pot? The only time I’ve had backwards leaves are when the plants aren’t oriented correctly in the pot
1 like I’m a newbie so I honestly don’t know. I will check that out
0 likes Mine were from when I was a newbie as well! If you investigate the vine, all the leaves should face the same way. Nothing that a small repot can’t fix though

When I was trying to work this out for mine. I was pointed towards a video by Kill This Plant on Youtube, which really helped! Although it actually helped too well. I ended up separating the plants that were crammed together and they were so happy that, three months later, I now have five rapidly growing monsteras continuously shooting out new leaves in my little flat 😂 Pictured is just one of my pots. Since having the extra space, the leaves are all starting to come in with more fenestrations than in this photo.
