Just a thought: can you propagate peace lilies?? I really want to give some to my sisters.

I’ve always loved how fiddle leaf figs look, but because of their reputation as being hard to keep alive I’m a bit hesitant to buy one just for it to die as soon as I get it home…😂 anyone got any tips as I’m a beginner plant parent! Thanks

I just saw this propagation station thought it was a very cool idea easy and cheap to make yourself !

I went to Homebase today and scooped up all these fallen leaves, some of them already have roots growing but I’m wondering if it’s ok to pot them all in the same pot of soil? (I don’t have enough plant pots for them all)

How do I propagate a chalk Dudley’s? Should I remove the flowers at the top for seeds? Clueless how to propagate this plant

I want to hear y'alls opinions on this. Is proplifting stealing? Me personally, I would definitely call pulling cuttings purposely off plants stealing but I see taking fallen leaves from the floor as perfectly acceptable considering they'll just be swept into the trash anyway. What do y'all think about this?

I was given this cutting from a coworker today! She said it was a “friendship plant” and didn’t know the actual kind. It can grow in either water or soil and grows new leaves from its “branches”. I am still new to plants so I am not sure what this is. I was thinking a corn plant maybe?

Wow! Two months ago I posted asking for help on my Alocasia Bambino that apparently went dormant. I knew nothing about them besides some varieties can go dormant in winter. This is her today! After sitting lifeless and bald in a pot for 6 months, I decided to try reviving it. For two months I had it in a plastic bag with mist, then added sphagnum moss, then a week ago when the roots were long and a leaf sprout was 1/2”, I moved to a glass jar covered with a plastic ziploc. It instantly put out a beautiful baby leaf! Leafless photos is from end of June. Yellow leaf is from a year ago before it put out it’s last 2 leaves that lasted ~2mos.

My Rex begonia seems to be getting big. I am repotting and want to propagate a second plant from one of the big rhizomes. Where should I cut and how big a piece should I cut?

Where would secondary leaves grow from my cutting that consists of a small main stem (with nodes/roots) and a petiole stalk? 🌱

I’m propagating my partner’s Grandma’s plant. She’s since passed away and it’s in the care of his mom but it’s been alive since the 1960s! So with that being said, I don’t want to mess it up lol! It’s an Arrowhead plant and I have 6 cuttings from it that I am propagating in water. They are already starting to grow roots. How much roots do I need? And when I plant them, should I plant them all in one larger pot since they are such long cuttings?
