Hi all! I just got this purple waffle plant, and I noticed it has some aerial roots. I’m assuming I can stick it in water and propagate it… has anyone here done it before?

\*Update\* I’m going for it! I’ve got the cutting in a jar of water in a South facing window. 🤞

I’ve had success plucking these from my garden and just sticking those areial roots straight into soil! Super easy to grow
