Whaaat, I have a decently-sized monstera at home and I didn't know this either! I'm going to see if I can convince it to fruit !

I’ve had some for years and didn’t even know they could flower or fruit, kind of sad :(

From what I have gathered, they need to experience sustained hot and humid tropical-like weather to be convinced to flower... So it can be tricky!
