# What do I do about this plant? The top leaves are coming in brightly…

What do I do about this plant? The top leaves are coming in brightly but the bottom leaves are very dull and it's extremely leggy. I have it in a north facing window but I'm worried that it may not be getting enough light. Should I cut the tops off and try to propagate them to get a bushier plant? Thanks in advance.

I have had the same problem with this gal. Now that I moved to a place with less light she’s never happy no matter what 😪 but if your plant is super happy where it’s at now (to make the vibrant leaves) you can leave it there. Planta usually tells me to prune her pretty often to get her bushy. As far as propping that’s a personal preference but I did end up doing that to mine (mostly). They are super easy to root.

Thank you. I think I may trim off the top of the longest stem and see what happens.
