Should I give her a haircut or leave her be? And if so, where should I cut?

MugsyThis is totally your personal preference. She looks gorgeous and healthy. Some like to prune and let it form branches and become fuller. Others like to leave it and allow the stems to grow long and trail. If you want to prune her, just cut right above a leaf node (the point where two leaves emerge) using a sterilized scissor. This will encourage branching. You can then propagate the cutting in water or directly into soil. If you want to propagate cuttings, my recommendation is to have at least 1-2 nodes that will be submerged in water to produce roots. You can Google this, there are great videos.

nickPersonal preference or if u want a second plant. I took mine apart in the fall because the top was super bare. Repotted all the tubers. It looks about the same length as yours now. I do like the look of it tho it looks very full and happy

Miminggay&BakerDon’t cut them. Pin the nodes back to the soil without cutting them, for a fuller look. They’ll grow roots and will look much more healthier!
