Does anyone know what plant this cutting is? Also, how do I profligate it. It was a gift and I’d love to know more about it and make it flourish. Thanks!

This is it right!? I have one also. I recommend pulling a few leaves off the base and sticking it right in a pot of soil. Make sure 2 nodes are in the soil. They’re very easy to propagate!

I thought it might be that one also just wasn’t sure. Thanks for the help! I will do exactly that. No need for it to have any roots?

No roots needed! They root very quickly!
