Hey guys, I have this philo brasil that looked so beautiful and full when I bought it. Then I got super stressed and basically ignored my plants for about a month and now she looks like this. I have her on my windowsill (SE facing, not super sunny here. It has a screen, and temps range from 30-50 rn.) she does have growth at the base and at the end of this long vine, but I want her more full. How can I propagate her to help? Where do I cut? After putting them in water can I stick them right back into this pot? TIA

    Propagate and replant into the same pot so it has more than one stem. Or you can try wrapping it into the pot and pinning the nodes into the dirt so they root themselves

      Thank you! I wrapped it in the pot

    If you wrap the roots around the soil and pin them down (using hairpins), the nodes will root into the soil and make it look fuller…

      Oh, yay! SO much easier than propping!
