Does anyone have pics of their successful props as full-fledged, bushy plants?? I would love to see pics for inspiration. The propgated plants i have and see are like a single leggy stem lol. Share your happiest prop and say how long it took to get where it's at now! 🌱

    I got a cutting from my grandma about 10-11 months ago. It’s now branching and has tons of growth!!!

      This is what I was looking for! So happy and full. How many separate propgated stems did this start as? And how long did it take from when it rooted to now? If you don't mind me asking. Thank you!

      These are cuttings from my mom's pothos. I water propgated and just moved to their pot a couple weeks ago. So far they're still happy!

      Willow and Celesta are the coolest sister names ever.

      She's gorgeous!!!!! 🤩 My spider plant gets crusty tips and it's so aggravating. Yours looks so happy!!

      Thank you! She does get the occasional tiny brown tip, but I’m not sure why she stays so green. The mother plant she came from is in the same room and gets massive brown tips. I think maybe this one being in the window and getting full sun for about 4-7 hours a day might be helping but the tap water she gets shouldn’t help either. Shes a really adaptable girl lol

    I’ve tried with this rubber plant. It’s been 1 leaf for an entire year. Don’t know what else to do😥

      This is so bizarre to me! I've heard of this happening a lot. Which is why I made this post, because I want to know if there's hope to hold out for props like this 😅 It's so weird to me that they can stay alive in their pots for so long but not ever grow....?!
