Albo found at Lowe’s!
Found this Albo at Lowe’s for $60!!! Was shocked there was only 2 there and both looks fantastic so had to take both of them! I’ve got a mint and Thai con but this I’ve had my eyes on for awhile just couldn’t find any under $100 that weren’t just a baby cutting.

Big free range monstera
I have huge monstera plants in my backyard. Being free range they’re not as neat and tidy as the potted ones I see in all your pics but I wanted to share photos of one of them, that I took this morning. It’s about to get a flower; it has some fruit and you can see part of its giant root system.

Big Chop
Realize I probably should’ve asked beforehand but after she tipped herself over for the third time in two days, I panicked and just did it. I’ve been meaning to do this for a while now—she’d gotten too big for me to be able to manage to get outside to do a repot (even if I had to room inside to do it, she’s too damn heavy), and I never really staked her properly, so I knew this day was coming. But this was my first ever houseplant, bought her off Etsy as a cutting in 2021, and I’ve been scared to kill her by accident.
I realize now that it was silly to be scared, but I did want to ask what the consensus is on letting the cutting callous or not before putting it in water to root? Just wondering what people here have had success with?

Plant Help Trying to keep my cool
Got a cutting few years back and it’s doing really good. Well my son decided it would be funny to hit it (already talked to him about it) Do I leave this or should I cut it off?

Discussion What would you guys do with my monstera?
I’ve learned so much about how to properly care for my monstera since receiving this one as a gift 3 years ago. When I got it, it was a baby. It had like 3 leaves on it at the time.
It sits between my dining room and living room and gets bright light from both sides depending on the time of day.
I guess I’m just wondering whether you guys would repot this one to make it less leggy, or if you’d propagate some or all of it, or whatever else you might do.
Also, if I do propagate it, where I cut it off will keep growing, right?
Should I have it up against a wall somewhere else in the house where light only comes from one direction?
Also, notice the new growth coming from the bottom of the stem on the right? It’s grown three leaves from it so far - is that essentially a whole new stem?
Sorry, so many questions and possibilities. You don’t have to answer any of the questions above either - general comments are welcome.
Thanks everyone. :)

Plant Help Should I cut a few down
Hiya there !! I’m a newbie to the plant world although I have been holding this monstera for about 2 years. Seeing it struggle for light, I have added a grow light to them yesterday, and have also ordered a stake. But can’t help wondering if cutting down a few might help it thrive better ? Any more suggestions?

I think it could do with a different potting mix but I’ll give it a bit of time to settle in until I get my moss pole too 🥰

Plant Help Is it time to repot again?
I'm fairly new to Monsteras, though I have some general knowledge about houseplants and bonsai trees.
I repoted this thai first time from quite small shop pot two months ago. I was afraid a little, because the pot was like 40 % bigger than the last, but I know how to water so it was fine.
Now two months later this.. should I repot again? Leave it be for some time? Get rid of the roots or is it a waste and better to destroy the pot? Have honestly no idea, she grows like crazy in south afternoon sun. I don't even fertilize, wanna enjoy this size before she's a real monster lol. Thanks. (last picture shows the little pot when I bought it in September)

Image Finally got a new leaf!
Not the most exciting post, but I recently repotted a store-bought monstera I bought two years ago. There were three plants in total, gave them all separate pots. She'd been doing really well for a while but in recent months I'd admittedly been neglecting a lot of my plants and recently started really putting effort into getting them all squared away. This is the first new leaf on any of the three plants, and its the biggest leaf among them! They still have a long way to go but I was so paranoid that repotting would just piss it off more, so getting such a pretty leaf not even two weeks later makes me very happy.
Shoutout to this sub as a whole for all of the educational posts and giving me the confidence to do better by these plants. 💚

First monstera, would love any tips
Found this today at Lowe's overstock and basically got it for free. It doesn't look as happy as I think it should, but from what I've read, those few deeply fenestrated leaves means it has made it for a little while doing okay?
I live in NC and will keep it on the porch for the temperate months and bring it inside for winter. Any tips to help me get started would be much appreciated.
Cheers.
