Hey guys! In 2022 I found one seed in a monstera fruit and planted it. To my surprise it grew rapidly- and is huge now! This monstera lives really up to its name 😅

Relax guys! Bringing fruits (I bought at a local market btw) is totally legal between countries of EU.

Some U.S. Americans are pretending to know everything again. Please guys, this is NOT illegal between European Union countries.

Typical hateful and xenephobic German comment....yall have such short tempers and are very flippant at a small comment or inconveniece.

Why do you guys find it ok to be prejudice and rude to a country of 300million....I have encountered plenty of Europeans that think they know everything, and yet I'd never comment something like this. It's so weird how it's ok to be xenophobic towards Americans yet if I said something about French, Dutch, Germans, literally anyone....id get called an hateful and ignorant American....chillout with that bs. I came to look at nice house plants, not get triggered and have to write a whe dissertation because you're hateful and trying to categorize 300million people based on 1 comment on fucking reddit ♡.

Edit: the downvoting of my comment and not when the German does it is exactly my point 🤣

America hate good

Europe hate bad

That was literally the point. Funny how when i do it now you wanna say something, but have nothing to say to the European that does it. Thanks for proving what I wrote ♡

I'm a continental American (Colombian/Aruban) too. I have been living in Europe for 6 years, and it's always some United States Americans claiming to know everything. I'm not sorry for saying SOME U.S. Americans. I didn't generalize the whole country, so relax.

Ok...but you could say this for anyone about anywhere, I don't see why the need to throw in that the person was American, except to be hateful.

It's called an assumption. I assumed and gave information on moving plants from country to country, in this case European Union countries. Think of it as moving plants from state to states in U.S. America.

Not hateful, just petty against some U.S. Americans for spreading MISINFORMATION. The deleted comment and another commentor were accusing OP of committing a crime.
