    Do you mean you want to root the bit you broke off or make sure the exisiting plant is OK?

    Good evening Nina and welcome to the site.:dbgrtmb: What you need to do is. Cut the stem into section, you do this by cutting about 3 inches either side of a leaf node ( joint ) leaving the leaf in place. Take as many of these cuttings as you like and plant them somewhere where they can be left to themselves for a while. You plant them so as the cut stem is just underground and the leaf is above ground.:thumbsup::thumbsup:
