Als ich das letzte Mal eines davon hatte, habe ich es versehentlich getötet … Ich möchte wirklich versuchen, diesen einen Schuss zu geben! Bitte helfen Sie … Ich bin ahnungslos !!

    It won’t prop. It’s lacking the “node” which is a part of the plant that can sprout roots and produce more growth. Unfortunately, leaves by themselves down contain this critical piece of their body. You *can* get what I think people call zombie leaves, where the leaf grows roots and survives but never grows.

    Are we all talking about different plants? These prop via leaf constantly

  3. Hi you can definitely prop this! Cut the leaf and stick the cut side down in soil, also trim the petiole and stick that side down in soil. I’ve gotten 4 props successfully off of one large leaf before.

    Then put a plastic container on top to up humidity.

  4. Anyone mind listing what common plants prop via leaf? So I know what to pick up off the ground and plant (vs. just picking up to clean the area).

    Just stick it in some dirt. If you have growth hormone, even better.

    I just stick them in water and leave them there until new leaves start showing

    You can propagate from a single leaf, but my results were hit-or-miss. I had the most success by cutting the leaf in half (or even quarters) and sticking 1/4″ of the cut side into a 2″ nursery pot of straight perlite, covering the pot with a clear plastic dome and placing in a saucer filled with water.

    Keep in bright, indirect light, allow the perlite to *slightly* dry in between refilling the saucer–check in often and use your discretion…if it’s kept too wet, the leaf will rot but if it’s not wet enough, it’ll shrivel up. Just right and it’ll start growing roots from the cut edge–pretty cool!

    Everyone is saying it will prop with a leaf and I’ve tried it. It gave tons of roots but after 6 months it did absolutely nothing else. Good luck ! Update us if you’re successful! May the plant gods be ever in your favor !

    Grow in an African Violet pot for ‘osmotic’ ease of watering. Peaty soil.

  10. I’m propping two now! Super easy and they grow pretty fast. Do itttt 🙂‍↕️

    How insane is nature that a partial leaf can turn into a whole plant! Plants are so amazing.

    I grew an entire plant of one of these from a single leaf I found on the ground. Very easy to prop in my experience.
