ok so i’ve had a lot of heart leaf philos for awhile now and they’re starting to get long and potentially viney? i was wondering what the next step is? or if there is one? like do they need to be moved to a hanging pot or do i need to propagate or prune? i could use any advice please and thank you! 😊

hi, this looks like a pothos to me. and it’s all a preference thing but if you believe it’s too viney, try to increase the light. but it’s their nature too! if you want it bushier, prop in water and then place back in soil once roots are abt two inches long.

Yeah, you can separate the vines into single leaf nodes, leaving an inch or two on each side, and either drop them in water or stick them straight in the soil.

Definitely a golden pothos! But heart leaf’s are as hardy as one!
