So a few years back, 3 or 4, we planted a normal sized, previously potted monstera. We wanted some shade so we could plant ferns and such underneath.

We kinda just let it do its thing. There’s a couple of small poles in there because we weren’t very coordinated about it tbh lol.

We really need to trim it back and so I had a look on this sub but most of yall have potted ones and I don’t know if we should treat this one different.

Any thoughts or ideas are welcome! I had thought we could trim the lower level leaves and keep the top for the shade but it’s grown kinda scraggly and not really having a simple trunk.

It’s approx 2.5m high x 3.5m wide.

    Step 1: wait for the fruit to fall off and mail it to me 🫣

    Jk, I don’t have any advice for such a big beauty in the actual cutting back question, but damn is she gorgeous!
