I wonder if a scindapsus ever grow their leaves back? My plant have lost a lot of leaves and left a bare stalk. It still keep growing up but will it ever grow back the leaves on the stalk? |

No it will not grow it's leaves back on the stalk. Cut the stalk back as far as you can and it will grow a new stalk, complete with leaves. |
