Propagation is key for a peice like that!!!!! #### TheCrazyPlantLaidy respondi贸 el 2024-04-04 How tho #### Aly Jacobo馃尰 respondi贸 el 2024-04-04 Stick it back into the soil and roots will show up in a few weeks #### Christa respondi贸 el 2024-04-05 Thanks ### Christa coment贸 el 2024-04-04 I鈥檓 not sure how to do that. ### Scarponi coment贸 el 2024-04-05 The plant grows with the tips of the leaves pointing upward. Put the end that broke off far enough into the soil so it doesn鈥檛 fall out and water as usual. You might have to take one or two leaves off the bottom to allow for more stem space. Don鈥檛 throw away any leaves you remove; each of them can become a new plant! #### Christa respondi贸 el 2024-04-05 Thank you! ### LearningPlantMom coment贸 el 2024-04-05 Propagate!!!! Yayaya! ### Moonjack coment贸 el 2024-04-05 What is this plant called?
