I’ve grown this beast from a cutting in about 4 years. It sits directly in a west facing window and I am lucky enough to have two skylights that will hit it in the early/mid afternoon during summer. It’s in a gigantic terracotta pot (can’t remember the size but it’s friggin heavy). I feed it year round with Jacks 20-20-20 water soluble fertilizer. The newest leaf is 49”x 36” and it is getting unwieldy to say the least. This summer it’ll get chopped and propped and I’ll let the original stem continue to grow. I’m hoping the leaf size won’t reduce too bad, but we will have to wait and see!

Magnificent!
WOW! 😍 Gonna show this to my Marcy the Monstera so she knows what she’s capable of
I just came here to say wow!!! This is insane….have you chopped it to keep it only huge leaves? Also is the main stal wrapped in sphag or is it behind?
Wow! Beautiful! I wish I can grow mine like that. Keep up the good work
Do you grow roots before chopping? If you haven’t considered, I would advise you to look into that method. 😀
That’s a Monster-a of a plnt for sure! What type of Monstera is it?
