I've had my Monstera deliciosa for two years now and it's finally starting to fenestrate consistently on new leaves

I've had my Monstera deliciosa for two years now and it's finally starting to fenestrate consistently on new leaves. I was worried the first year since I read so much about needing "perfect" conditions, but mine seems quite happy in bright indirect light near an east-facing window in my tropical climate. The growth has been steady without fussing too much. Has anyone else found that their Monstera took a while before the characteristic splits appeared, or did yours start fenestrating right away?
