# I’m very new to plants/plant care, I just started with some cuttings…

_Posted by Haley on 2026-05-24_

I’m very new to plants/plant care, I just started with some cuttings that were gifted to me a few weeks ago. My mom was gifted some cuttings around the same time (pictured) and they were a bit neglected, left in water propagating for a few weeks. I rescued them today, two marble queens and a lemon lime philodendron - they look a bit worse for wear. I’ve potted them and watered them, do they look like they’ll make it? I’m pretty confident that the lemon lime will take to being potted well but I’m a bit concerned about the two marble queens 😭
