# Hi! I just had a few questions about some free cuttings I took from…

_Posted by Christian on 2024-02-19_

Hi!  
I just had a few questions about some free cuttings I took from our local garden center. I’m super excited for them and I would like to know the names of them if anyone could help. Also if there any recommendations on when to plant them and how, that would be appreciated too. I showed a few to a friend and they had told me some were rare, and I was wondering if that’s true?  
Thanks!!

The first looks like a golden pothos (but it’s hard to tell with the leaf curl) The second looks like a satin pothos, the last two are varieties of tradescantia

The last tradescantia roots so quickly! I love propping mine!

The 4th one i have aswell and it’s a pretty hardy plant, you can plant straight in soil if you please and as it grows just chop and prop to make it a fuller plant
