My money plant’s stem is growing longer and longer. What should I do?

Sam, Vice President of the YAA asked:


I’ve put it in a pot and hung it around my porch but now - it’s grown quite long and the leaves are dangling all over the place. What should I do? Cut them?

I was thinking - is there a way to grow MORE money plants using those leaves or something? Sorta like, cutting the whole stem off and then planting it into a new pot, so that it grows.

Really sorry bout asking so much - but I’m a newbie at gardening and this money plant is already having me in stitches… LOL!
What do you think about the superstition that the money plant brings prosperity and wealth?
I forgot to mention this but… the money plant I’m talking about is also known as the Devil’s Ivy.

Chuck N asked:


How often should I water it. Does it need to be feed with plant feed? can I keep it out on my balcony (I’m in wales)? Does it need anything else. it’s is getting brown spots. I only have it a few weeks and have been keeping it out side.

Also, how do I look after lavender plants? same q’s as above really.

I am really bad with plants and need a dummies guide really.
