      No worries!!! I cut a leaf right at the stem and stuck it in water and let it do its thing. ETA: it took about 6 weeks for it to get its first tiiiiny root and I used a small piece of pool noodle cut with slits to keep it floating in the water. I just top up the water every once in a while and she’s happy. Oh and I had a pothos cutting(and a tradescantia) cutting in there as well which might of speed up the process.
