# Hello plant friends! I need help please. I had a full-grown Florida…

_Posted by Buffy on 2025-01-07_

Hello plant friends! I need help please. I had a full-grown Florida Green Philo that kind of died. The plant on the right is from the original and it had roots so it was planted this in soil in the early summer. The remnants on the left were also from the original plant and have no roots. Right or wrong, I had these two pieces laying down in moist perlite and they have sprouted and have no roots. What should I now do with these so that they grow? Thank you for any advice that you can give me 🙃

Do you have any rooting hormone? I like to dip mine in it then I’ll just stick them in water with some superthrive and fertilizer.

Oh thank you. I will do exactly this and keep my fingers crossed! 😊
