I just bought this Melanochrysum and it hadn’t been staked properly leading to smaller leaves and leggy growth. I’ll attach pictures. I was gonna do a little chop n prop but I’m not sure where to start the cuttings from? Anyone with experience with this plant or just propagating in general please help! I want her to live up to her full potential, as right now she just isn’t. Still a stunning plant tho :)
Yeah so you would just cut them all right under the nodes and throw the leggy parts away. Place your nodes down in water and pot them all when you got some good roots. She will be full and taking off 🥰

You could also try scoring the nodes and applying keikei paste
