# I don’t know what to do with this poor little guy. The past 3 months…

_Geplaatst door Jewel op 2023-08-25_

I don’t know what to do with this poor little guy. The past 3 months he’s been losing leaves throughout the length of the stem and now there’s just two baby leaves at the top. Can I propagate this somehow? Any advise?

Yes, you should be able to propagate them! I’ve seen people cut off a leaf at the base of the stem (right about where the arrow is so it still has the little bulbous part of the stem attached) and root it in water. I’ve never tried it, though, so I can’t vouch for how well it works.
