help! my pothos was sitting on my desk in my office (wall to ceiling windows on the 5th floor) and noticed some Long naked legs. I moved her to a top shelf months ago and am still not seeing any progress. Any advice??! She's my pride and joy 😫

I trimmed mine back. I've had this happen with a few scindapsus.

No wait they eventually grow leaves you just need to wait. My pothos grows leaves on bare vines and in places where old leaves used to be.

### Sunny commented on 2024-11-15

It needs more light based on the large gaps between the leaf nodes and newer leaves being smaller.

More light!! If you don’t want the leggy parts to remain, I recommend chop n’ prop!

I chopped two and propagated 🤞 I left the other two vines and they actually started to regrow leaves! More sun was definitely needed!
