# My Philodendron Prince of Orange is doing great, however, the base of…

My Philodendron Prince of Orange is doing great, however, the base of it is very wobbly and I'm nervous it will eventually snap as it gets bigger. Am I able to cut a few of the bottom leaves off and plant it deeper to cover the nodes/areial roots?

Yes definitely do that! You can also add a pole for support

I'm so nervous to do it but that will be my project tomorrow. Thank you for the reply

Mine is wobbly too. I just let it be for now and have it lean against its neighboring plant buddy
