The plant in your photo appears to be a Pothos (Epipremnum aureum), also known as Devil’s Ivy. It’s a hardy tropical vine with heart-shaped green leaves, sometimes variegated with yellow or white (though yours seem mostly green).
🌿 How to Propagate Pothos
Pothos are extremely easy to propagate — here’s how:
1. Choose a healthy vine
Select a long vine with several leaves.
Cut just below a node (a small bump or root nub where a leaf joins the stem).
2. Prepare cuttings
Each cutting should have 2–4 leaves and at least one node.
Remove the leaf closest to the cut end so the node is exposed — that’s where roots will grow.
3. Root in water or soil
Water method:
Place the cuttings in a jar or cup of clean water, making sure at least one node is submerged.
Keep it in indirect light and change the water every few days.
Roots should appear within 1–3 weeks.
Soil method:
Dip the cut end in rooting hormone (optional) and plant it in moist, well-draining potting soil.
Keep the soil slightly damp and provide bright, indirect light.
4. Transplant
Once the roots are about 2–3 inches long, transfer the water-rooted cuttings into soil.
Would you like me to show a simple diagram of the propagation steps or how to arrange the cuttings for dense growth in a pot?
