This is Prince (Gynura aurantiaca; purple passion plant). He keeps getting too tall and lanky for my liking. So I am frequently trimming him down. As a result, I get multiple stem cuttings. These are four individual cuttings. I am amazed at their root growth!
Mine keep getting lanky as well. Is there a way to prevent that and encourage a more bushier growth? Or is lanky just how they grow?

I’ve got one of these which has grown like crazy this summer, so I’m just about to do some cuttings. I was pleased to see they propagate really easily! They’re such pretty plants.
