How to grow Monstera

1. Set up support

If you want the Monstera to grow straight, you need to provide some support. You can place the Monstera and the flowerpot together with the wall so that the plant can grow against the wall. It has the ability to climb and can grow upright along the wall. You can also insert a support in the flowerpot so that the branches on the plant can grow upward along the support. This way, the branches that grow out will be more upright and no longer tilted to the side.

2. Tie the rope straight

You can choose to use a rope to straighten the branches. When the new leaves have just grown out and are about 10 cm long, tie them up with a rope so that the branches can grow upward through external force. Once the branches have grown well, you can release the rope. In addition to using ropes, you can also use wire, which has a good shaping effect, but you must be careful not to leave marks on it to avoid affecting the aesthetics.

3. Cut short and bury the roots

In addition to the previous two methods, you can also slowly take the plant out of the pot, cut off part of the roots in the soil, and then replant it, and bury the roots deeper. The cut roots can also be placed in another pot and planted, possibly forming new plants.
