  1. Dear sir/madam,
    I have a very distressed Monstera. It is quite old (+45 years) and has a very long stem. From this stem there were many leaves, roots and air roots growing happily. Until a short while ago.
    The roots got root rot and died off. This caused the plant to loose the leaves.
    The air roots are still visible and the stem seems like there is still life in it.
    There is also a small green shoot coming out of the stem which gives me hope!
    But, I realise it needs roots and I have no idea how to get the stem to grow them. Which part should I put in water?
    Can you help me? I can also send pictures or jump on a video call to show you the plant.
    Thanks for helping! I hope to hear from you soon.

    1. Hey,
      Thanks for going through our blog.
      If the plant’s roots are left, even if a small part, then try to repot it to a new pot with fresh soil.
      If not, You can take the aerial root part and make a just below that node and then apply some rooting hormone and try growing it back in the water or by using LICA.
      Also, you need to change the water every 2-3 days and take good care of the plant until the stems roots and settles back!
      Hope that helps!
