Hey guys! So this is a Swiss Cheese Plant I received in the mail about 2 weeks ago. It had 3 leaves, all of which have completely wilted and died. Like brown, crunchy, absolutely useless.
Can I cut this up and it’ll grow? The nodes already have (I think) aerial roots coming out of them. The roots seemed healthy when I checked them when I first got it.
Explain it to me like I’m a child, I need a step by step here people. 😂
I have tons of plants, but I very rarely prop and I was VERY excited about this plant so I’d love to find a way to save it/multiply it if I can.
Help me!!!

Those are not viable aerial roots. You do have new growth points activating though
You’re going to need to watch some YouTube videos to learn how to prop this. I can’t explain it like you’re 5
In my experience, chop to the nodes, sprinkle the cuts with cinnamon, and dust the node with some mycorrhizae powder if you have it. Put those in lightly damp moss so the nodes are touching and keep the humid up. Bonus if you have a heat mat to warm (not hot) from the bottom.
