So this year the squirrels have gotten very aggressive.. and the l decided to chew right through my 3 year old see grown Chamaedorea Metallica. Chewed it right in half. I remembered reading that you can root Chamaedoreas so I decided to give it a shot and it worked!!! New leaf growth and roots are showing after 3-4 months of being in spag. So glad was able to save this one!

 

Edit: sorry about the sideways pics. Never works right on my phone

Nice save , pesky squirrels can be annoying. We have a type of ground squirrel that tears up our hillsides . Almost as bad as gophers . That Metallica looks like it’s ready to be planted now . Harry

True, metallica's sometimes do make extra roots alongside the stem.
