it's not hard. how tall is your's? with a sharp knife, cut about 4-6 inches off the top. strip the bottom 1-2" of leaves from the cutting, and stick it in the soil with the mother plant. water as usual. in a few weeks you will notice that the original plant has 2 or more new growths (baby plants) growing from the top of where you cut off the top. and the cutting will have rooted and have new growth also. at that time, you can pot the cutting up in it's own pot, and wait for the "babies" to get big enough to cut and root again.

one note though. you want to leave at least 3-4" of plant above the soil line on the "mother" plant.

thank you for that i will try it on my plant in a few weeks

Thanks Jiffy, will be having a surgery this week then.

We are all under the same stars... therefore we are never far apart.

Jiffy, can this be done in the fall?

(My zip code brings up USDA zone 7B, but I think it should be more like 9B.)

with these, it can be done nearly any time of the year, as long as they are "indoor" plants. they just root slower in the winter.
