5. Chinese Evergreen

 

Cut a few inches of your Chinese evergreen plant and place it in a bowl filled with water.  Make sure two inches of the cut are underwater, and the rest is above the waterline.  Keep in mind that the plant needs indirect daylight to grow in water. 

 

Therefore, it is better to place the container on the window ledge. Wait four weeks for it to grow, and you will notice the roots emerge from the submerged part of the stalk.
