You don\u2019t want to cut anything from the center stems of the mature plant, though.

Many people like having <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uaex.uada.edu\/yard-garden\/resource-library\/plant-week\/lucky-bamboo.aspx\">bamboo in the yard<\/a>, but it can quickly expand beyond where you\u2019ve planted it and take over your yard \u2014 and the neighbor\u2019s! Growing a stalk in a glass jar is a great way to enjoy the simple beauty of this plant while ensuring it stays contained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The stalks are so tough that you don\u2019t have to worry about them dying in the water. It doesn\u2019t even have a specific light requirement because it can make do with anything. Direct sunlight can burn the leaves as they appear, but otherwise, low light is fine. If you notice the green color fading, move it into indirect sunlight.

maintenance they are. You can quickly propagate them because the stems have nodes all over, producing new roots rapidly when you put them in water. You can cut longer stems to ensure they stay healthy in water without needing time to regenerate new leaves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once the pothos develops leaves, they can live in water for an extended time. You can have bundles of these plants growing around your house because they don\u2019t need much sunlight. Pop a few springs in a glass of water and use them to brighten up the darker corners of your home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"Prayer_Plant\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-prayer-plant\"><a><\/a>Prayer Plant<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1600\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/proxy-botanicalinterestscom.epicgardening.com\/community\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Maranta-leuconeura.jpg\" alt=\"Plant in an orange container sitting in front of a window.

The spider plant almost does the propagating for you as the spiderettes grow from long stems, dangling from the mature plant. You can snip off the stem and put the plant in a glass of water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Each spiderette should have its own jar to ensure it gets enough water and can let its roots grow freely. It\u2019s best to use a vase that has a thin neck so that the plant itself stays above the water. The roots will rest in the water and grow down as far as they need to go. If you don\u2019t have this type of jar, put the plant on plastic wrap and cut a hole for the roots to get to the water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"Swedish_Ivy\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-swedish-ivy\"><a><\/a>Swedish Ivy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1600\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/proxy-botanicalinterestscom.epicgardening.com\/community\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Plectranthus-verticillatus.jpg\" alt=\"Tall, clear glass jar with water and a plant inside.
