I wasn't planning on filming this video today, but when my pink princess philodendron started to rapidly go down hill, I thought I would chop her up and propagate her to make some gorgeous new little baby plants!
In this video I take you through how to effectively propagate your philodendron pink princess in water, as well as taking wetstick / chonk cuttings to propagate in other ways (such as moss and perlite).
If any of you have any questions, do let me know in the comments below and I'll do my best to help!

Hello Claire. I just wanted to tell you I watched this video before I tried to propergate my pink princess. I never knew about the wax trick but it worked a treat. Three out of five are now starting to grow roots!!! I am very excited. Thank you for your help. Perth Western Australia 🇦🇺.

[@baristurkmen2342]

I've never ever seen anyone do this wax sealing trick but it makes so much sense! Thanks for that I think that's going to help my cuttings so much more from now one. The biggest issue I always get is the ends of the cuttings rotting despite doing everything I can to keep it all super sterile, but just sealing with wax is something I'm definitely going to try. Thanks!!

[@christinbreezy2284]

I've been in the plant hobby for years and nobody has taken the time to explain specifics like you. You've definitely just saved several of my PPP cuttings ❤

[@KeyushTheStuntDog]

Have you filmed an update video on how these cutting are doing? Would love to see their progress.

[@TheJungleHaven]

I actually haven't and I really wish I did. I took some to a plant swap recently, and swapped another for a plant I wanted on facebook. I've still got one of the wetsticks - sadly the teeny chonk didn't make it 💚

[@mepeet4062]

Chlorine will dissipate if water is left out for a day or two, however, chloramine will never dissipate and does more damage to plants. Easy solution is to use water conditioner (used in fish aquariums), which does remove both chlorine and chloramine and the other chemicals in water that are harmful to fish 🐟 and plants 🪴

[@Ghaasper]

Not all water conditioners will get rid of chloramine 😢 good to check if it says ‘detoxifies ammonia’ then it will. Even then it’s only for 24 hours and for that time it’s just ammonium instead of ammonia. In fish tanks the bacteria will turn it into nitrite then nitrate. In a glass it won’t. Although if you have a fish tank you could just use the water! 💦

Very good video, I learnt a lot. I got obsessed with plants this fall and my Pink Princess is doing incredible. I hope to propagate it if something were to happen to its base like yours, or perhaps when it just grows bigger

[@Crystal-be9ze]

For the upper angle cut where you can’t really dip it in wax you can use an old medicine dropper, it works well.

Great and informative video 😊thank you for sharing us .Iam your new friend Jopsy

[@dclarkmcdonald]

Are you using a specific type of wax? This is the first time I'm seeing anyone do this, but it makes total sense.

[@Monica-ne6ob]

A node is where the petiole joins the stem and aerial roots grow from the node. An axillary bud is where the new growth comes from, when you were saying nodes i think you ment aerial roots. Usually when you have a 1 leaf cutting you have 1 node, 1 axillary bud and aerial roots. Great video otherwise 😊

[@TheJungleHaven]

Thanks for this Monica - your comment got me doing some digging! I know the node is the point where the petiole meets the stem, but I've always been taught that the surrounding bumps are also nodes and you're right, I think I'm totally wrong about this! I know I say here that for me aerial roots have rarely produced a root system in these plants, but after doing some research, turns out in fact they have! Thank you 💚

Would it be possible to do a video on propagation, why you do it, when you do it, how long you keep them propagated etc. I'm just a complete newbie and it would be helpful. Thankyou

I just bought a tiny pink princess, do they have roots that grow into a moss pole ? or do you just tie them into a pole. Love your stuff by the way

[@tarshy95]

Hi there! Love your videos! Does the wax have to be a certain type of wax or can it be any wax?

[@cyndiclark9657]

Glue gun... I think that would work very well and easier for the awkward ends to seal.

[@samrush3111]

Please do a video specifically about planting propagations. I have a few on the go and I’m just like do I do it now or do I wait for some more growth first.

[@TheJungleHaven]

I will do! Generally if you're in any doubt I'd always wait slightly longer as a bigger root system will always give your plants a much better chance!

[@BMGardening-GS22]

Hello very nice sharing friend.my pink princess is not working and in a very unhealthy 😭 condition

[@jeneencastillo5085]

Can you put it in sphagnum moss instead of water?

Hey i have a question about the leaf of a propagated cutting,over the years ive propagated and they mostly all survived but is there a way to always be able to keep the original leaf as i have some that yellow over time and i have some that are still with newley awakened baby plant or that just depend on the cuttings strength?

Did you use a specific type of wax or just wax you would put in a scentsy?

what will the rooting hormone do when the ends were sealed with wax?

[@briannapierce5073]

Can you do the wax seal the next day? Like cut them and let them sit over night then seal with wax then put in water?????

[@artifect]

Good and informative video! Do you need to water and wet the moss pole?

[@TheJungleHaven]

Hiya! Yes it's a good idea to keep the moss pole moist as it helps and encourages your plant to grip on and climb 💚

[@TheBSideDJ]

would you suggest adding a little cinnamon in the water ?

can you use scented wax to seal the ends of the cuttings?

[@kandizee826]

Does the wax type matter? Can you just use the regular scented wax that's meant for the warmer or is it something different in there?

[@kaleylynn6565]

Why has no one responded to this? It's a great question and one I was looking for an answer to!

[@mamaj6028]

Me too. The wax looks yellowish, so I'm out without this answer.

[@Notmetoob]

I’m going to assume it’s because nobody else would want to put perfumes into a cut plant. Not being mean, not at all, but common sense comes into play with this question hun. Again, I’m not being mean I’m sorry I don’t know how else to say it

[@kaleylynn6565]

@@Notmetoob There are lots of different types of wax out there that aren't scented. Tea lights for example, used with the warmer to melt the scented wax but aren't scented themselves. Would wax from a tea light work or is there a special or certain wax that is used for this process, such as beeswax? That's what I want to know. Also, I believe there are candles that are scented without chemicals, more natural, but don't quote me on that.

[@phonetism]

what kind of wax do you use? thank you!

[@my.pnw.garden.sanctuary4536]

What would you do if you did notice some of the cuttings rotting?

[@lauramejia4706]

Many plants are propagated from aerial roots only so they deff will make roots. That how I grew roots on my Florida beauty from one aerial root.

My friend cut two leafs off for me to “Propagate” no nodes at all on them. Am I able to propagate them with no nodes?

[@anikinandyunasmommy1909]

Do you have an update video on the cuttings?? I have a 3 ft tall PPP she has a pup at her base and she's super leggy and has recently had yellowing leaves. I am thinking the baby needs to be separated and maybe cutting her back to make more fuller looking but so nervous. I am happy I came across this video and the wax idea!! But still nervous!

[@Mandyliciousify]

Omg my PPP has pups as well and she's look a bit scanty. Did you separate the pups? How did you do it? I'm trying not to freak out sigh 😅

[@anndriggers6660]

It's a good idea to leave it sitting overnight so the end can heal over and then clean that end with some alcohol or some hydrogen peroxide before you seal it so that you don't seal in harmful bacteria that will cause it to rot under the wax. I guess I'm hyper careful due to the fact that I've had so many cuttings commit hara kiri...🙄

[@TheJungleHaven]

You're so right about letting it sit overnight, it can be a really good idea - that's something I definitely should have mentioned. Touch wood though (hopefully I don't jinx it now 😂) mine have always been successful with this method!

[@anndriggers6660]

[@wrenreneer2909]

This video is super helpful! Thank you for sharing! I have a PPP that I want to propagate bc she is starting to revert but she doesn’t have nodes. I’m glad I watched your video before I did anything that would have killed my beautiful plant. Do they all eventually get nodes? Should I just wait it out so I can keep her from reverting back fully?

[@TheJungleHaven]

Thank you! Is she quite a young plant? Mine often don't develop nodes if the growth points are quite new... If you find anything to go off you can always try air layering tiny nodes to encourage them to grow and root

[@Dolly8285]

[@Thecatnamedkiwi]

Did they ever turn into plants?

[@ElleISOElohim]

I'm confused. Don't you want the end to absorb water to grow? By waxing it off, is it still able to absorb the water it needs?

[@TheJungleHaven]

No the aerial roots will swell and absorb all the moisture the plant needs - if you don't seal the ends or allow them to callous over before propagating you run the risk of your propagation rotting 💚

[@clover2328]

I have a pink princess cutting with two leaves and it looks like the leaves have been folded in half and both have breaks in the midrib (I think that’s what it’s called) 😑 I have it in sphagnum moss in a terrarium and the leaves haven’t gone fully yellow yet but I’m sure they will. Am I better cutting them off or waiting till they turn all the way yellow?

[@clover2328]

Hope you don’t mind the question, great video!!

[@TheJungleHaven]

If you can see the leaves are definitely on their way out I'd probably say chop them - that way your plant can focus it's energy on the healthy growth instead of wasting energy trying to save a bit that's dying. Leaves getting stuck and not being able to unfurl is often caused by either lack of humidity or a watering imbalance, so maybe crank up the moisture in your terrarium?
