Are baby rubber plants easy to propagate? I want to make this one bushier so thinking of cutting the top two leaves with the nodes and prop in water.

Yes! I find stem cuttings prop easier than leaf. It also will usually branch from where you cut, so keep that in mind when you’re taking your cuttings.

0 Me gustaMine only sent 1 new branch up when I trimmed mine, it didnt get any bushier. BUT mine is a red margin which might be slightly different than the baby rubber plant variant. It rooted pretty quickly in water, but the mother plant was much slower to regrow. I trimmed right above a node just in case he decided not to regrow anymore.
