So Iβve unfortunately neglected my plants for the past few weeks whilst Iβve been in the process of grieving and planning my sisters funeral. I noticed a new leaf growing but didnβt expect much to come from it as Iβve watered it maybe once in 3.5 weeks. My sister always teased me (in a loving way) about how much I wanted a fenestrated leaf on my Monstera. She wasnβt into plants as I am and her take was βwhy would you want your plant to have holes in it?β I would reply something along the lines of βcause it looks cool and shitβ. She would always laugh at me and say βyouβre so weirdβ
In her last few months she lived with me as I was her full time carer and asked me almost daily if my leaves were βholyβ yet and my response was always βsadly not yetβ.
Yesterday was her funeral and I said my final goodbye. This morning Iβve woken up and walked past my monstera to find THIS. Call it a coincidence, call it a sign.. Iβm not sure but I just wanted to share bc it was pretty fucking cool and it absolutely made my morning πππͺ΄

This is wonderful-I was sure after my Mom died that she caused her Hoya to bloom for the first time in my care! She was hesitant to gift it as she loved it so-who says plants canβt help us heal! Iβm very sorry for your deep loss and hope you continue to heal with this beautiful monstera by your side!π
