While it roots easily in water, it is always better to root cuttings in soil like potting mix, perlite, vermiculite, or other solid medium. Some plants that are rooted too long in water simply learn to live in water and cannot live outside of an all water environment. Some examples of these plants are pothos and philodendron. Once plants develop enough roots to survive on their own, you should move them to soil. If yours is not doing well, it could be that the soil is either too wet or too dry.
