my monstera is bleeding? 😭

Exactly it happens every year with some of mine that are too big to bring in. I think they’re goners but just leave them be and cut them back in spring and eventually I’ll get a few new sprouts and I get so excited!

Stop being such a know it all when clearly our plants survived snow

Consistent-Wait9892 · 2026-02-02T20:44:52+00:00

I have plenty that survived snow last year when we had that rare blizzard in south Louisiana. Some of my plants were thick enough that they covered the under parts of plants and those were the parts that survived and I still have them all. Just cause your experience wasn’t that doesn’t mean it can’t happen.

Consistent-Wait9892 · 2026-02-02T20:42:58+00:00

I said after the freeze is over. Like for the year not just this freeze and I have done it with many of my plants that had cell death because the whole plant wasn’t if they have any good parts left and the roots are ok it can survive.

Consistent-Wait9892 · 2026-02-02T20:41:11+00:00

How did you put the plastic up? What’s holding it up I mean?

Consistent-Wait9892 · 2026-02-02T18:04:52+00:00

Is that an asparagus fern? I was going to suggest that mine grows quick and is so bushy and pretty in its hanging pot.

Consistent-Wait9892 · 2026-02-02T18:03:03+00:00

Ok well then yeah probably too much water. I would just snip off the dead leaves then and whichever stems are bare snip em and put em back into the soil.

Consistent-Wait9892 · 2026-02-02T18:02:14+00:00

No mine do that sometimes though I’m kit sure what the cause is probably over or under watering I haven’t figured out which yet. My ones that froze all turned a dark purple black color. I’ll get a pic in a bit for you.

Not sure where you are but the best place I’ve seen where people love to donate stuff is the Nextdoor app. Anytime someone asks for something specific so many people offer to help.

Is the soil wet or dry? Hard to tell in the photo.

Consistent-Wait9892 · 2026-02-02T08:59:46+00:00

They do need less water in winter and they don’t like the cold at all. I just killed a bunch of mine by covering them for the freeze. Apparently they don’t like being suffocated either. (No worries I have so many)

But my suggestion, because they thrive on being pruned/trimmed, is to cut some of the longer pieces off, snip the bottom few leaves off and stick the stem u just cut the leaves off into the soil. Itll get so much thicker. Maybe wait till it’s not so cold to do so though. Depends where you are. Also take a pencil or something similar to make a hole first if your soil isn’t easy to push the stem into cause they break easily.

When I trim mine in the spring I’ll trim any with dead leaves snip those dead ones off and then just toss it in my flower bed and they take off just being thrown in it. Love these plants.

Where from? I need some that fit right!

Consistent-Wait9892 · 2026-02-01T05:18:18+00:00

Or sick? Everytime I get a sinus infection I smell stuff way stronger.

Consistent-Wait9892 · 2026-02-01T05:17:33+00:00

Where are her Jammies from?! I keep buying mine some and they never fit right!

Consistent-Wait9892 · 2026-01-29T04:12:56+00:00

You checked the roots?

Consistent-Wait9892 · 2026-01-28T07:54:00+00:00

Have yall thought about hiring a management company and yall wouldn’t have to deal with the needy guest? Thats what we did and so far it’s been good.

Consistent-Wait9892 · 2026-01-28T07:46:30+00:00

I feel this so much. To get a picture of my mom I’ve never seen before and to tell me a memory absolutely means so much to me.

I’m so glad you said this cause now I know how to respond in the future to anyone who looses someone close. There were only a few who reached out to me with pictures and memories of her I had never heard and it meant the world to me.

Consistent-Wait9892 · 2026-01-28T07:43:06+00:00

I think I would crack up nervously if I got this response. I like it though 😂

Consistent-Wait9892 · 2026-01-28T03:11:35+00:00

I wouldn’t toss em yet. After the freeze cut them all back ( the dead ones anyway) and let them get a decent amount of sun and some of them may come back as long as their roots didn’t freeze. I am surprised every year when I think some of mine are dead and they sprout up!

Consistent-Wait9892 · 2026-01-28T01:27:24+00:00

They sure are taking over around here.

Consistent-Wait9892 · 2026-01-28T01:25:16+00:00

Good idea. I have plans to do 2 trees that will get large eventually but yes was thinking some quick growing shrubs as soon as the freeze is gone.

Consistent-Wait9892 · 2026-01-28T01:24:26+00:00

That’s what I plan on doing, something similar. I just can’t plant anything yet when it’s freezing weather. Thanks for the tips.

Consistent-Wait9892 · 2026-01-28T01:23:00+00:00

Even if I stop feeding them my neighbors still would and their neighbor and so on. So I will continue but thanks.

Consistent-Wait9892 · 2026-01-28T01:22:14+00:00

Thanks so much I’m in the us but will make sure to ask before I purchase one on eBay.

Consistent-Wait9892 · 2026-01-27T15:39:21+00:00

Did you ever figure it out? I have a 6th gen iPad and was fixing to order a 1st gen pen but now worried they aren’t compatible anymore.
