How long have has it not been growing?

#### TheCrazyPlantLaidy antwoordde op 2024-04-13

Like two months

It looks like a Pothos to me, so they like a lot of water. The soil at least on top looks a little odd also. What kind of soil is it in?

#### TheCrazyPlantLaidy antwoordde op 2024-04-13

It has cinnamon on it, and it was originally a water propagation

#### TheCrazyPlantLaidy antwoordde op 2024-04-13

And it’s a less dense soil, and the brand had a frog on it

Pothos are actually drought tolerant and prefer to dry out between waterings

So it should be doing well from what I can tell. Not sure what to say, but keep it watered and near light.

Lay across the soil or get it started in water first
