Chop some and put it right back in the mother plants pot. They grow like weeds so should fill out nicely. Bunch of mine are blooming right now!

unfortunately the flowers must come off if you're looking for more foliage. flowers are huge energy suckers. only way to get bushier is to chop \& prop anyways 🤷‍♂️
