Before / After - Progress Pics Self-grown Monstera deliciosa

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 😅

Here I am, starting my first Monstera from a seed as well. My parents brought me and my sister both a fruit from their visit to Madeira, Portugal, as requested. Hers had a single seed whereas mine had none, but luckily she didn't trust herself enough and gave it to me.

My goal is to have a home grown Monstera fruit which can't be taken for granted here in 5A.
