Hey there, so i’ve had this monster for about 1.5 years and when i first got it the leaves had no fenestration or anything but eventually i got some holes in those leaves. I’ve since put it outside for the summer and it’s been growing well, has a new leaf unfurling as i type. However, today i noticed two little “sprouts” from the rhizome which don’t look like arial roots and are green. Could these be new stems?? If so how do i encourage them to develop?

Hiya @jajaminx, those are new aerial roots growing. You need not do anything with them - just watch them grow. The plant will teach you as you watch it :)
