Cross posting: How would you rehab this fiddle leaf fig that my sister gave me? Would you try to chop + propogate? It was really neglected for a while.

U could chop and prop and also u could try keeping the bare stems and taking care of it normally and it might grow new branches. Then u wud end up with two plants idk if u wud want that or not.

I've also read before that you can make them branch by cutting somewhere near a node but it would take quite a bit to make it nice and bushy again.
