# This is my momma Pothos. I say momma because I cut her back but can’t…

_Posted by Barbara on 2025-06-10_

This is my momma Pothos. I say momma because I cut her back but can’t stand the idea of just letting the cuttings die. So I have many children all over. I stick them in taller plants pots to add some lower definition. I’m in serious trouble if I keep this up 😂

I’m the same way, I can’t just throw away the cuttings!

Hahaha, it’s creating a problem. I love plants and feel bad when I loose one. That being said, I just can’t toss them out. If this keeps up I’ll have to open a nursery. That’s where my husband will draw the line. 🤭 So, he’s gotta go 😂😂😂

Ha! Maybe not a full nursery but you could surely do a small business on the side! Rent a booth at a flea market or farmers market and sell your babies!

Oh my gosh… what a great idea! 🤗
