# Is there any way to propagate this monstera? The rest of the leaves…

_Posted by Emily in Austin on 2024-11-03_

Is there any way to propagate this monstera? The rest of the leaves have died and been cut back. It’s got 2 aerial roots and I see what may be fresh growth at the base of the plant near the soil.

Plant it. I have massacred chopped my deliciosa before and it comes back. I just plant the nodes with aerial roots.

Any tips for how to do it best?

#### Plant lover1 replied on 2024-11-12

it can be as simple as cutting above a node and sticking it in water but for best results I would add some rooting powder to the cut end and let it dry for 12-24 hours then put some fertilization in the water it will live in for the next few weeks!
