My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Monstera Leaf Damage

5 years ago

I purchased my first monstera a few weeks ago and it seems to be doing well - new leaves are appearing and opening quickly. There is damage on most of the leaves and I can’t tell if it’s caused by bumps and bruises, pests, or inadequate environment. The light green leaf is new since I brought it home and has these brown spots, so I don’t believe it’s caused by injury during transit or at the store. Can anyone help me identify what’s causing these unsightly tears and spots?
