Thank you all so much for sharing your knowledge. Actually, this plant's long hard stem got bent a # of months ago. It definitely dented the stem & even broke thru the hard outer stem surface. In the hopes of not losing the long stalk with potential for new leaves, I clipped it a couple of places to the supports. Maybe that is the reason it has continued to stay alive, but not flourished.
I am gonna take a pic of it & point to the damaged area. I wonder now if I should take pieces??
How about air layering, like with a rubber tree? hmmm.........the damage is actually a couple of inches below the distal pair of leaves and there appear to be a number of roots that have formed between the damaged place and that set of leaves. Wonder if I should just sever it and plant the stalk..or/& even take a couple tender sections nearer the end to root....???.just a thought....penny for yours?
