Pothos is the easiest houseplant to clone, and the trick nobody mentions is dipping the cut end in rooting hormone powder before the water ever touches it — roots form in days instead of weeks. A single stem cutting sat in a jar of tap water on a bright kitchen windowsill, and by week three thick white roots filled the lower half of the jar. Once the root mass looked like a miniature fist, the cutting moved outside to a terracotta pot of dark potting mix. New vines started trailing over the pot rim within a month, and by late summer the variegated heart-shaped leaves cascaded down the patio table in a dense curtain — all from one stem. Pothos, philodendron, and monstera all root the same way, though pothos is the fastest.
