how does one make a monstera thrive?

do you actually need to trim
the biggest leaves?

or is it a bigger pot that i need
to hold in all these trailing vine-roots
as they escape their confines
and go searching for something to climb?

or is it simply the air around us
better humidified would do it?
or maybe a spritz of water once
or twice
a day?

i mean, my monsteras are all fine
they’re doing
fine

but i really
desperately
want them to
thrive

i keep forgetting to water my poor orchid
i mean, i always remember the next day
but it is nice to take care of all the plants together

it feels like they’re all family that way.
