They might not be viable since I don’t see any nodes on the cuttings, and that is usually where the roots come from. You can always keep trying though!

There aren’t any nodes, so even if that leaf grew roots, it would stay a one leaf plant until it eventually died. I haven’t seen a pothos grow roots without nodes so I don’t even know if that is possible either.

When trying to propagate, be sure to cut beneath at least two healthy leaves along the vine, and one node (the brown nodule looking thing along the stem). Beneath the nose is where roots will grow from, and once the roots spindling out beneath the nose on your cut reach 1.5-2inches long you can put into soil. Good luck!!!

These are basically Schreoedinger’s cuttings- both alive and not alive at the same time. As everyone else is saying, there are no nodes, so nothing new will grow, but the current leaves will possibly stay alive for a good while.

Next time make sure you have a node or two in the water. A leaf without a node is like picking flowers and putting them in a vase, nothing is going to grow from it. You might get some roots but no new growth points.
Also you can put multiple cuttings in one vase. They’ll root faster from the increased rooting hormones being released into the water.

Those aren’t actually cuttings. Those are just leaves in water. There’s no node so it’s not gonna form any roots.
