Thank you Hetty & Gigi... I am in Southern California, and the plant was gifted to me from a friends neighbor who was moving into a retirement home, so it's possible it had been neglected for a while, and it has been warm & dry lately. I too thought it was odd that it had a hollow stem. I've just cut the broken stem into two cuttings just above the V, dipped the ends in rooting hormone & clipped the leaves. The new cuttings are slightly less hollow and am now wondering if it would behoove me to cut them a little higher in hopes of getting a solid end. Any thoughts?
