# Hello! As of last Christmas I have received a slightly cat-chewed…

_Gepostet von Taryn am 2026-03-23_

Hello! As of last Christmas I have received a slightly cat-chewed spider plant from my Grandma. It’s doing really well now, and is sprouting a bunch of new baby plantlets and blossoming flowers! Can I leave the new plantlets alone and let them grow? Or is it best to remove and propagate? Any thoughts are appreciated! Thanks!

You can leave them attached. It actually looks good doing that

i leave them be until they get their own aerial roots, but up to you!

It looks beautiful, you did a great job! I agree with the other posters. You can leave the little plantlets and enjoy the look, it won’t hurt anything. In the past I’ve left them on awhile and then eventually removed and propagated them when I needed or had room for another plant. I think mine had the aerial roots by then too like the other poster said.  
Also love your lava lamp!
