A super kind lady on FB Marketplace gifted me a free Bamboo, Monstera, and two Pink Princess cuttings! Need advice on rescuing/planting them...
Hey everyone!
A sweet person on FB Marketplace gave me a huge haul of free plants today: a bamboo, a monstera cutting, and two Pink Princess Philodendron (PPP) cuttings! I'm super excited, but a few of them need some TLC and I want to make sure I plant them correctly.
Could use some expert advice on a few things:
1. The Bamboo:
It’s flopping over and clearly needs to be repotted into a sturdier setup.
Should I pull off the yellowish/white leaves on it?
Is the main stem supposed to be turning yellow, or is that a bad sign/rot? What’s the best way to handle it?
2. The Monstera Cutting:
Should I trim off the damaged leaf, or leave it alone for now?
Does this cutting need to be rooted in water first, or is it ready to go straight into soil?
3. The Two Pink Princess Cuttings (PPP):
I already own a PPP in a nursery pot, but I've never planted fresh cuttings before and have no clue how to plant these two!
Should I pull off the yellowing leaves on the cuttings?
What is the best method/setup to plant or root them so they survive?
I attached photos of all three so you can see their condition and roots. Any tips on saving the bamboo or planting the cuttings would be amazing! Thanks in advance!
Plants have no light as I just got them and are currently laying on the floor as in the picture 😭
