I’ve done a fair bit of research on this, and the consensus seems to be that cuttings do best with long hours of indirect light. On a cloudy day, put them in your brightest spot, on sunny days, pull them back from the window. If your cuttings have leaves, they do need light Plants get …

They’re pretty reliable rooters, pretty speedy to root AND Syngoniums are vining plants, so if you want a bushy plant, you’ll need to chop and prop a bunch of cuttings to achieve that. How to take a Syngonium cutting You need a node to propagate a Syngonium. They’re vining plants, …
No. You can’t grow a Monstera plant from a single leaf in water or soil (or moss or perlite or whatever substrate) without a node BUT you can root a leaf and have it live its happy zombie leaf life. If a Monstera produces a new leaf, it has a node – you can’t grow …

What’s the difference between a top-cutting and …
