I feel very lucky to own this plant in such mature state! The blooms are amazing and the large leaves are just perfectly beautiful 🌱

Just absolutely dreamy and phenomenal! I had no idea it gets even better with red flowers. Just wow. Mine is smaller but perfect, as when I see a new leaf come in, I position the plant toward the light where an open space is, so it will be forced to grow in that direction, then rotate it evenly once a week if it's not growing a new leaf. I see now it has a vine its growing. Wow, what am I gonna do with it growing upward? So I looked up what it would look like if grown high. Didn't find any, but yours that is the highest, that has about a foot of stem. It is just huge and lovely. I definitely would put it in a pot 3 times as big since it's already big. That would give it room to grow, and first untangle a few roots. That is the most enjoyable calming time to whittle away at soil, just poking carefully with a bamboo shrimp skewer. You could probably get several hours of enjoyment out of that, if one can be patient enough. You can get a dropcloth and let the soil fall on it. Or if the leaves would break in laying down, you could prop it on a pedestool for the leaves to have more room to hang, and let the soil fall as you untangle a little. I remove the entire old soil as least once after getting it from the store to make sure it has no root rot on it, then I know my chunky soil is around it for the next repotting, so don't have to remove as much soil. Maybe half. Then it will have room to grow even more monstrous. I have a giant Foxtail Fern in a literal trash can to find a pot big enough. It billows over the sides and is so happy. Its great to see your proud smile for such an amazing plant! I keep looking at mine more and more, and assumed you might like to read a more longish reply, having the same love for such a gorgeous plant. Yours must have costed hundreds. It is truly great to see a large size out there and what mine would grow into. I suppose I should start thinking of a support pole soon. I wonder what lighting you use. There’s those ring lights on Temu with an extendable pole many feet high that could work good for yours, and where it can be programmed to come on automatically. Thank you for the great video!
