Should I prune these plants?

How should I do it?

Just remove everything that doesn't look nice and replant the healthy leaves?
They where in poor condition when I got them, now they are growing very well.


Chop the tops off about 4" and replant them?

Pull off the new growth and plant them?

Pull off all the old leaves and only keep the new growth?

Stem plants (most of what you have pictured) - just break off wherever you like, keeping in mind that you will usually get 2 branches splitting off the location of the break. Then you can stick the top into the substrate.

For Vals, Crypts and other runner plants, you should break off leaves you no longer want as close to the base of the plant as you can.
