# Plant Update: I said I was just going to get one plant. Somehow “one”…

Plant Update: I said I was just going to get one plant. Somehow “one” has turned into 4…okay, seven. 🌿😂 At this point, I’m not collecting plants, they’re collecting me. I do plan to take one out of water and simply grow it in soil to compare the difference🤔

If you got it as a cutting, just wait for roots to grow, then plant it. I’ve rooted mine in soil as well

I love those plants! I have so many. They are easy to propigate and they grow fast.
