Cut the corn plant back, 4-6" above the soil-line. They always grow leggy and cutting back is the only way to have a good looking , smaller plant. I had a huge peace lily, about 36" wide and 3 years old, with dozens of blooms in the spring/summer. It stayed outside during the spring, summer and early fall months, and that's perhaps why it always has bloomed so well. Our unusual early cold took it away. I have now lost several dozen jade and several dozen aloe vera (some really large ones), numerous schefflera and rubber trees. I simply did not have room for them inside. Oh well, less mouths to feed in the spring. Whistling

The reason it's so hard to lose weight when you get up in age is because your body and your fat have become good friends.
