I was given this super leggy pothos (hanging pic). I clipped the leaves and made water propagations. I replanted the base because the roots were strong, and now it’s filling out again (green pot pic). I cut up the rest and made wet sticks that are now pushing roots and leaves. I was really hesitant to cut up this pothos, but now I have so many healthy beautiful plants!
