My Monstera finally split a leaf after two years of looking like a regular plant

My Monstera finally split a leaf after two years of looking like a regular plant. Turns out it wasn't being lazy—it was just too shaded in the corner. Moved it closer to the window and within a month the new growth came in with actual fenestrations. I'd honestly thought I was doing something wrong, but it was just waiting for better light. If yours isn't splitting yet, that's usually the culprit.
