Update on Penny the #Pothos!
About a month ago Penny, my first leafy plant, received a haircut and went from 80s mullet to a pixie cut. And OH MY! She’s simply stunning!🤩 I’ll admit, she looked a lil awkward for a week or two. But she’s growing length again and all her #NewGrowth is coming in a delicious mix of green and yellow! Along with all of her trimmed vines having multiple offshoots growing in. Most of the #Cuttings I removed were just green and a darker green at that. Making me think maybe she wasn’t really a #GoldenPothos.
Almost all of the cuttings taken from her were able to be rooted. I used a mix of #SphagnumMoss and a perlitepropbox">#perlitepropbox. They have LONG roots, and new leaves growing. Even the wet sticks have multiple leaves growing. The cuttings aren’t as bright as Penny herself, but they’re brighter than before the trim. I haven’t potted them yet, it’s seems a daunting task (cleaning all the moss off the roots) and I have a lot going on recently, but soon.🤞🏼

@Ninabeena I think I might need to cut Aelin (another pothos) back soon, too. She’s starting to invade the personal space of other plants.
@LiftLashPlant trimming it made it more full. That’s why I trimmed it so short, to make it bushier around the pot. The cuttings are currently in a prop box. I’m contemplating putting the cuttings back in the same pot. But I think they make their own 6” pot, there’s that many cuttings. So I’m not sure yet.
@VerdantFlora very cool. Philos and Pothos are so easy and fun to propagate. I have a few smalls one I started with a handful of water propagations. Thanks for sharing
@VerdantFlora 😂 my satin pothos and philodendron brasil are doing the same thing. They are getting trimmed and propagated. My client wants cuttings of several of my babies.
