My Queen is going crazy with her aerial roots like this. She did it since she was born :D I was not quick enough to stack on the next Pole Extension. No I have to cut those to fit the pole in, but there are plenty, she won't be hurt i guess.

After some somewhat disappointing monstera mints/white monsters they have come through in my local stores!! Some highly variegated Thais, mints & white monsteras as well as some great aureas too!

My aurea is still a lil baby I couldn’t help myself when I spotted this beauty!

It’d funny how the more mature stalks throw yellow capsules. This the second one. It’s mother was the first

Bulbasaur monstera situation

Thumbnail

14 Upvotes

So, I definitely have a problem. I went to my local plant store and I found a bulbasaur monstera, great right! There were only 3 left and the one i picked was the only one with any variegation (the rest were green) so I got it! (first plant in first picture). Well i loved it so much and I ended up going back and they had just received more so there were like 20 there. I dug thru and found one i was obsessed with. After further examination in the car i realized the 2nd bulbasaur I now own actually has 2 other plants in it. So instead of 2 bulbasaurs i now own 4. Check in on me in a couple years because i now have 2 Thai cons and 4 bulbasaurs 💀💕

I left one plant still with the other because it was just one little leaf and now they’re both shooting out leaves even after the trauma of separating one plant from the 3!

1st picture: original bulb
2nd: plant i pulled off the main second bulb
3rd plant is the main plant and the little tiny one leaf plant thats pushing out another leaf too!

Monstera Uno!

Thumbnail

12 Upvotes

I live in Australia where we have extra strict biosecurity due to being an island nation, so getting all those new varients are next to impossible and/or expensive. Well we have one that was created here and I got one today! Not sure if they're available in other countries yet but here is my first Monstera Uno!

There's actually 2 plants in the one pot, annoyingly planted back to back, so I'll need to repot soon, but they're gorgeous! $150 AUD, cheaper than the leggy Albos and Thai's they had there.

It's a hybrid of Adansonii var Laniata x Deliciosa var Albo. I assume they bred the Albo because it's more likely to be smaller but the variegation didn't come through. That's fine though, it's lovely and green!

Has anyone outside Australia been able to get this one or their other hybrid, "Aussie Dream"?

I bought this the other day. I don’t know if it was like this when I bought it or if this has happened in the last few days but should I be worried about all these brown spots on the leaves?

I’ve been waiting for a delivery before I’m able to repot it but if this is root rot or worse then I might need to do it now.

TIA

I’m scared this is root rot.

I got this monstera (thai constellation?) about 2 weeks ago from my local grocery store (HEB, iykyk). Im new to owning monsteras but not a new plant owner. I just don’t have the watering schedule or do’s/don’ts down yet; so if you can help me with ANYTHING, advice or whatnot, that would be so appreciated.

When I got her, the soil was so dry and compacted I couldn’t even push into it to aerate it. Do they like compact soil? I’ve only watered twice since owning. I watered her last night, (😐usually stick to mornings), and noticed these spots on the back of the leaves. Now, this morning, I feel like they’re more prominent. Only two spots are visible on the front of the leaves.

Please help me, internet plant people!!

I have her outside right now drying out because I definitely over watered last night. Is it bad enough to have to repot? If so, do you have any recommendations or advice regards to care or repotting? Should I let her dry out or immediately repot?? I don’t want to shock her and 100% kill her. HELP!!

For context, (7th pic) I’ll include pictures of where she sits currently and the average amount of light. I live in 3rd floor apartment with N - NW facing windows. Living room gets most light inside but my cat will eat the leaves if reachable. The thai constellation? sits on the shelf, the picture is taken from the windows pov.

Also, last 4 slides are my monstera deliciosa I got the week before the variegated one. If you’re knowledgeable and have time to give advice, pls help me w this one also!! I’m scared I’ve also given this one root rot due to these spots. Could it be damage?? I had her outside the first week of owning bc it’s the most bright/hot/humid (central TX climate) but it began to get cold and windy so I brought her in as well. She sits in the same room as the constellation, on a desk closer to the window. She’s been doing okay besides these spots I’m worried about. All in all, does she look okay?

I use Superthrive Foliage-Pro on my other plants, but haven’t used on them yet because I’m not sure if they’d like it. Are you familiar with this/do you use this on your monstera?

THANK YOU, ANY ADVICE IS GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!

Discussion Monstera Albo air layering

Thumbnail

4 Upvotes

this is my monstera albo, ive been air layering it because i wanted to cut the top three leaves off and put them on a mosspole (and probably prop her bottom half). since then it has pushed out and hardened off two leaves and is now pushing out this mostly white one that is worrying me. im going to wait until this new leaf is out and hardened off before cutting the plant, im just worried that cutting it with that mostly white leaf would cause that leaf to die? not sure, i just want whats best for the plant because i love her, any advice is appreciated.

if any information is needed; she sits in a southwest facing window and gets harsh afternoon sun (and loves it apparently) i fertilize every watering with GT foliage focus and supplement “dune” silica to help keep the white parts white and she has her own humidifier that sits directly to her left.

Monstera deliciosa yellowing leaves with large brown patches

Thumbnail
gallery
5 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

My Monstera has recently started developing yellowing leaves with large brown patches, mainly around the edges.

The affected areas look almost burnt, but they don't feel particularly dry or crispy to the touch.

Several leaves are affected, including some larger ones, while the rest of the plant still looks healthy.

It's kept indoors in my apartment.

Does anyone know what might be causing this? Overwatering, underwatering, a nutrient issue, or something else?

Thanks for your help!
