# 🌿 Hi Syngonium friends! My Albo is shooting straight up and I’m…

_Posted by Kaylyn 🌱 on 2026-08-05_

🌿 Hi Syngonium friends! My Albo is shooting straight up and I’m wondering… should I chop and replant in the same pot to encourage a bushier look? She’s absolutely gorgeous and my pride and joy, so I’m nervous about making the chop! ✂️💚

She is a fine looker. Sure chop (I see several possibilities.) it and prop the cuttings. This will help it present more bushy once you add them back into the pot.

I have chopped mine 3 times. She branches out each time. Go ahead and chop. She will bounce back!

I would say leave it for a few days and then make a decision if it’s still going uprr r ight
