Monstera deliciosa — an observation of attached growth

In the left panel, a pale shoot emerges from the older stem. The brown cords below are roots. In the right panel, a green leafy shoot is attached to a stem section.

The photographer identifies the left as the first sprout and the right as the sixth, after sprouts 1–5 were removed.

This record supports an observation of attached growth. It gives no elapsed time and does not establish that removal caused the later shoot or that another cutting will grow.
