My history teacher had a giant monstera just like that! She named him "Fred". One day some vandals literally burned our school to the ground, and Fred was nothing but a charred stump. In tears, my teacher threw Fred in the trash along with everything else that was destroyed in the fire. The school janitor saw the Stump of Fred in the trash and rescued it. Repotted it, watered it, and some time later, it grew new shoots! In tears of joy now, my teacher accepted Fred back, and my last year at that school I got to watch Fred unfurl new leaf after new leaf as it quickly revived into a thriving new plant! It was an inspirational story for me my whole life, recognizing that even when things look their worst sometimes there is new life still possible.

I’ve been loving watching your videos since becoming avidly invested in my plants. My husband and I were talking about my next plant having to be a monstera, then I saw your video where you went to pick yours up. The same day I went to a store for other yard related items and found my own! (It’s way smaller than yours but my biggest plant so far) I can’t tell you how happy I am to see you starting to make more videos with it. I watched as many as I could from other creators but you make me laugh the most. Can’t wait to see what else is in store!

I love you Krystal HAHAHAHA you're awesome and hilarious. I was admiring the giant leaves at the end when you said "she looks so much better able to stand up" and my brain instantly went "wait most of these aroids get BIGGER when they have something to climb!!!" and then I had a mini heart attack for you and decided that when you move the plant may just have to stay, or become cuttings :P
