How to grow a Monstera that is too long

1. How to coil branches

Monstera grows relatively fast and vigorously. If it grows relatively long, you can set up a pillar in the flowerpot and then put a few lines on the wall so that the excessively long branches of the plant can grow and spread along the branch pillars and lines. It is a perennial climbing shrub, so the branches have a certain climbing ability and can grow along the constructed lines. To be on the safe side, you can also use wire or thin thread to fix it. With careful maintenance, you can form a whole wall of Monstera, which looks quite spectacular.

2. Proper pruning

If you don't want such long branches and your home has limited space, you can prune them. You can use a sharp knife for pruning, top the plant first, control the height of the plant, and prevent the Monstera from growing too tall. Choose branches that grow too high and cut them off from the top, so that the remaining leaves on the plant grow lushly, promoting beautiful and even growth of the plant.

3. Cutting cultivation

Don't throw away the cut branches casually. You can prepare suitable soil, then use them for cuttings to cultivate new plants for viewing, which can also save money on purchases.
