# Hello everyone, I could really use some help with this one. My friend…

_Posted by Springvision on 2026-08-17_

Hello everyone,  
I could really use some help with this one. My friend is moving and asked me to look after her plants and this is her Monstera! She was just going to throw it away, but I am going to try and save it/propagate it for her. I was just wondering do I cut it below this ariel root or should I cut it above? Thank you for your help in advance.

You can really cut between any two nodes and propagate successfully.
