Recently a colleague sent me home with her Golden Pathos. She has tended to the watering over the past few years but has never pruned it back. There are a dozen vines, some as long as 4 feet, but each has only 2-3 leaves at the ends, and not a leaf anywhere else on the length of each vine. I set about pruning it back and noticed that it had once been pruned to one or two nodes above the soil and from these grew the scraggly long vines.
Where does one prune in a case like this, to start all new growth?
Thanks, everyone!

all the way back to within 3 inches of the soil. and cut the cut parts off to within 3 inches of the first leaf (closest to the root) and stick that 3 inches in the soil. you will double the size of the plant and make it look lots better while you are waiting for the bottom halfs to grow. discard the middle piece that doesn't have leaves, it is too hard to do anyting with.
