I carried that plant with me to Arkansas and then Texas, making cuttings from it all the while, and I still have numerous offspring from that original "stick". Some I use as houseplants, some as porch plants under shade, and I'm going to try putting some in the ground this fall.

Larger plants will benefit from a yearly pruning. Cut stalks back to 4-6" in early Winter, when the stalks begin to lose the lower leaves. This will ensure new cane growth, & a full, lush plant for the next growing season. Make 6" pieces from the cuttings & sink them 2-3" into damp peat/soil to propagate.
