no surprises

okay, it should come as no surprise that right as spring begins to pop here in the north, the house plants also begin to show off. (it makes sense, that same spring light is now streaming in through the kitchen windows as well). anyway, this well behaved and happy monstera in my kitchen has decided that now is the best time to start sprouting new leaves in every direction. so much so, that it will soon outgrow it’s corner or i will have to start trimming the new growth or find a new spot for it. a few years ago, photos of monstera leaves were very popular, but never did i see any unfurling monstera leaves.  this “baby” monstera leaf is probably 9 inches long. as in all of nature, “baby” is a relative term.
