Hi everyone!  
Recently planted a Philodendron that was first propagated in water. Plant is looking green, but it’s been a few months and little growth. Any tips?

probably adjusting. my brasil took about 3 months before i got a new leaf once i moved it from water to soil. watch the leaves though, stalling can be a warning sign for the starts of root rot

I haven't seen roots since I propagated my pothos. They move when they feel like it😏

Hey there! I’ve been filling dark corners, gifting, and (gasp!) throwing away trimmings from a 25 year old brasil for a looong time! She started as a tiny little vine I was gifted in college and now she’s my house weed. I think I always have a glass of cuttings propagating and then I shove them at friends. Hang in there with yours, and you too will one day have a house weed like mine 😆 I would guess that your roots are still establishing 🌱
