If you pull back some of the leaves at the base you may notice some root nodes. If they’re there remove the leaves and submerge the base in soil and either keep damp or submerge in water. Roots should develop from the nodes

Okay, so treat it like any other prop! Got it. Thank you.

Those are VERY hard to kill and eventually you will get some really good roots, I have propagated like that before plenty of times with that plant to give to people. You’re doing great!
