# I have this Chinese Money Plant propagation, but I can’t tell if…

_Publié par Mehgan C. le 2023-08-30_

I have this Chinese Money Plant propagation, but I can’t tell if these are little roots that are growing or something else.. I have this propagation sitting in water, not soil. I change the water at least once a week \& I have it about a foot away from the window so it’s getting sunlight but not direct sunlight because I’m scared it’ll scorch.  
Any ideas?

You can’t propagate pilea from leaf/petiole cutting, you would need a piece of the stem (where all of the petioles grow out of)

What you have may root but nothing new will grow

That’s what I was hoping wasn’t the case! This was given to me but it’s been staying alive, it’s been about a month since I got it.

You be better off getting a pup from the person who gave you it they put off pups constantly

Honestly I just realized another thing it’s good these plants don’t reproduce by the leaf bra they drop so prolifically I’d have a house full of these by now 😅 they are also very dramatic plants
