Default Propagating stem plants

I've been turning my few plants into many by snipping little plantlets off the top, just above a node, removing the leaves above that node and replanting them.

It's working fine, only problem is how it leaves the trimmed plant. Instead of the stem continuing out of the cut stump, another one will grow sort of out of the side and at an angle, and sometimes two will come out the stump, making for a sometimes ugly looking plant.

Is there any way to get it to come out straight?
