My pink philodendron has not been doing well so I have this root ball from it, can I still save my plant? Do I place this in water or should I just plant it? Thanks everyone 🙏🏽❤️

I’ve had similar issues with this plant. She looked great and then she didn’t. I’m not sure what the secret is once they get really big.
