Monstera Leaf Unfurling Time. 3 points 2 years ago. Right after unfurling the leaf will remain thin and bright green.
We love Monstera deliciosa sometimes called the Swiss Cheese Plant but we love talking about the other types of Monstera too including Monstera adansonii Monkey Mask epipremnoides and the super-rare obliqua. Juvenile Monstera leaves will have no slits or holes looking more like a heart leaf philodendron but as the leaves mature they will gain more holes and splits. Black spots on Monstera can be caused by physical damage.
The leaf in photo 6 looks perfectly fine and normal to me.
Forcing the unfurling can damage the leaf resulting in one that is malformed and ugly. Forcing the unfurling can damage the leaf resulting in one that is malformed and ugly. Monstera deliciosa leaf growth. Young monsteras have solid heart-shaped leaves and they almost look like a different plant.
