# I got this plant as a rescue and it seems pretty happy, but I’m not…

I got this plant as a rescue and it seems pretty happy, but I’m not really sure how to get the most attractive growth pattern from it. Should I chop and prop and plant them all together? It’s so upright! I could put it on a moss pole as well, but I think when I looked into it what I read is that the leaves don’t size up but that doesn’t mean it’s correct information.

I think this is a silver leaf philodendron? They are climbers so a moss pole is a great idea. You could pot together, wait till they grow and prop and add some more.
