My Dumb Cane is literally out of control!! I have four sections of the plant that can be cut and hopefully successfully propagated. Any thoughts or suggestions ?

Thank you! I inherited this plant from my sister when she passed away. It’s grown SO much that I feel like it’s reaching up to her in Heaven !!

I love that. I’m so sorry for your loss— this is a beautiful way to remember her.

wow that looks gorgeous. how special! only suggestion is that after cutting, let the ends callous before moving them to water to prevent rot. looks like you can cut those three main stems that stretch upwards

#### Dianneさんが2024-04-04に返信しました

Thanks for your help! Do I just let the stem dry ? A week or longer?

#### stonedfruuitさんが2024-04-04に返信しました

hmm ive never propogated a stem that thick but i think more like a few days would be fine. whenever the end dries over so just check on it periodically

#### Dianneさんが2024-04-04に返信しました

Thanks again. I don’t plan on doing this soon, but when I do, I’ll post some pictures!

I can see how it may start getting harder to manage but I love the funky tropical vibes. Do you know how old it is?

#### Catさんが2024-04-06に返信しました

lmfao. she started it. i pay for this app i will defend myself against people being RUDE TO ME FIRST

#### Catさんが2024-04-06に返信しました

i don’t care if two wrongs don’t make a right, if someone says something rude they should expect something back. especially when they’re the uneducated one.

### MGGreenthumb20さんが2024-04-03にコメントしました

Wow!

### Lindseyさんが2024-04-04にコメントしました

Gorgeous!!!

### Dianneさんが2024-04-04にコメントしました

I knew about the toxic properties of this plant , but never knew anything more.😞

#### Plant momさんが2024-04-04に返信しました

It’s ok, people shouldn’t be so rude

#### Dianneさんが2024-04-04に返信しました

Thank you for your understanding of my ignorance in this matter. I truly had no idea and would never intentionally set out to offend anyone. I

#### Lana Layne 🌺🪴🪻🌵🌸さんが2024-04-04に返信しました

I called it Dumb Cane too… I had no idea it meant anything to do with slavery. I honestly just thought it was a name given from the toxic property of making the mouth burn and numb

#### Lana Layne 🌺🪴🪻🌵🌸さんが2024-04-04に返信しました

Who has the time to look up every plant name and see why they’re named that… not anyone’s fault they’re called what they’re called. I have too many plants to google the reason why they’re all named what they are. And the scientific names aren’t always the easiest to remember. No plant parent owns a certain plant for what it was used for years ago, they just think it’s pretty. Obviously some are more obvious of being offensive such as “wandering Jew” so calling it a “wandering dude” sounds better to me.. but dumb cane is not a more obvious one to notice.

#### Dianneさんが2024-04-10に返信しました

I was told the same as to how this name came to be.
