I have 2 plants here. Both have very long stems. Both plants have had leaves that have died off. All New leaves are coming in on top. Is there any chance leaves will grow In where the old leaves had been?

    Unfortunately I don't think so.

    Depends on the type of plant and the stems themselves. Some of the bare areas look woody already, so no, new will not grow directly from there. It’s possible nodes will activate lower, but they are more likely to be whole branches, not individual leaves, and to force that, you’d need to cut the top growth back. It’s a gamble.

    That’s a good question that I was wondering for my ficus tree which dropped its bottom leaves when it first came to my house.
