Thanks for your help! Do I just let the stem dry ? A week or longer? #### stonedfruuit님이 2024-04-04에 답변했습니다. 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 #### Dianne님이 2024-04-04에 답변했습니다. Thanks again. I don’t plan on doing this soon, but when I do, I’ll post some pictures! #### Dianne님이 2025-03-29에 답변했습니다. Thank you #### Dianne님이 2025-03-29에 답변했습니다.

Do you know how old it is? #### Dianne님이 2024-04-10에 답변했습니다.

Yes, its real name is a diffenbachia, Beautiful plant and a nice remembrance of your sister! #### Cat님이 2024-04-06에 답변했습니다. lmfao. she started it. i pay for this app i will defend myself against people being RUDE TO ME FIRST #### Cat님이 2024-04-06에 답변했습니다. 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. ### MGGreenthumb20님이 2024-04-03에 댓글을 남겼어요. Wow! ### Lindsey님이 2024-04-04에 댓글을 남겼어요. Gorgeous!!! ### Dianne님이 2024-04-04에 댓글을 남겼어요. I knew about the toxic properties of this plant , but never knew anything more.😞 #### Plant mom님이 2024-04-04에 답변했습니다. It’s ok, people shouldn’t be so rude #### Dianne님이 2024-04-04에 답변했습니다. 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 🌺🪴🪻🌵🌸님이 2024-04-04에 답변했습니다. 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 🌺🪴🪻🌵🌸님이 2024-04-04에 답변했습니다. 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. #### Dianne님이 2024-04-10에 답변했습니다. I was told the same as to how this name came to be. _앱에 답글이 1개 더 있습니다._ ### Pierre님이 2024-04-04에 댓글을 남겼어요. Love it! #### Dianne님이 2024-04-10에 답변했습니다. Thank you!!!
