# How do I get my white princess to grow up ⬆️ instead of being bushy?…

How do I get my white princess to grow up ⬆️ instead of being bushy? Can I break this plant up into more than one ? If so, how? I know that her yellow spots are from over watering, I’ve had a broken ankle for the last month and someone else has been watering my plants for me.

I wish you all the best luck! I have some golden pothos plants that I don’t really know what to do with them when they start getting long and leggy. About all I’ve figured out to do is just keep looping the longer legs back through the pot holder basket to try and keep it somewhat manageable!

I read a lot on posts about pothos that get leggy that the best thing to do is just chop and prop them. My golden is growing like a weed

That’s pretty much the point that I’ve gotten to with my pothos.  
My problem is I also have a couple ivy’s that I don’t know what to do with them when they reach the same point.

I haven’t gotten there with my ivy yet. I bought it on clearance with severe root rot and it’s finally looking healthy

There are a few things you can do to get her to grow taller! I’d say first of all to make her pole taller, as she looks like she’s getting to the end of that one. Secondly, make sure that the moss is a bit damp, even misting it directly if need be, that can make a huge difference height wise. It looks like you’re already tying her to the pole, so keep doing that!  
If it gets to a more desperate point, you can also start pruning new outward-growing stems  
I don’t know much about breaking her up, sorry. I hope she gets to where you want her!
