This is my money tree that’s been thriving growth wise! However, one braided trunk stem has nothing growing from it and seems to be shrivelling up over time. Should I cut off the wrinkled end and hope it grows a new leaf somehow or leave it as is?? Thanks!!

it’s likely unsalvagable (in my experience) but you can try cutting below the shriveled bit and if the cut looks healthy, just leave it be. if it looks really bad you’ll eventually need to remove it

That’s what I figured. Thank you so much!
