    Congratulations on having your nephthitis grow so well you need to cut it back! Yes, you can trim it back - never more than 1/3 at a time. You can root your cuttings in water; they can stay in water indefinitely, too. They especially like aquariums (but if the leaves are in water they will start to rot). You will soon have little plants to share!

    This could be due to light conditions, watering problems, lack of humidity and even a build up of salts in the soil.
    Use distilled water or let the tap water sit out 48 hours before using on your plant.

    The soil should dry out a bit between waterings.
    Lack of humidity could also cause the brown leaves.

    You may also want to water with distilled water, or allow tap water to sit out for 48 hours before using.

    This is more than likely caused by one of two things. Either the plant has sustained an injury there, or it could be a fungal infection. I would go ahead and apply just a little wettable sulfur, or something such as rosemary, garlic, or boil chrysanthemum leaves in water. Either method you choose, you will want to wet the soil with it in order to kill off any infection.

    Here is a link to articles for more information on the care of these: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/houseplants/arrowhead-plant/

    Okay so I have some garlic. I am boiling some now, so after it cools i should wet the soil or the infected area?

    Syngonium is a rather unruly plant that is hard to keep looking good. It is naturally a vining or trailing plant and resists being grown in an upright manner. Consider letting the stems drape over the edge of the pot.

    Any stem can be cut off above a node and new growth will emerge subsequently at that node. Prune it so that it looks the way you want it to.
