Should I propagate this plant so it grows more up than out? Just wanted to ask for some advice on what to do. With how small it is I’m just unsure if I should propagate now or let it try to figure itself out

You can try cutting that side chunk all the way back and see if the central part reacts by growing up and turning into the “leader.” If that doesn’t work, you might need to chop and prop it to get it to grow upright—next time don’t let it grow sideways like that, keep it pruned!

I bought it when it was sideways and I’m just trying to fix it 😅 I’ll keep that in mind though and try that!!
