Just a little encouragement for anyone mulling over chopping and propagating their fiddle leaf fig. Iâm so glad I did it! Itâs been three months and here is the progress. It looks like itâs going to branch off in 2-3 new directions and has about 6 new leaves with two more ready to pop soon. The prop in the photo I planted last week. The second cutting is still rooting in water. I donât know if I would root a flf in water again. It got rot twice and I had to restart the woodier cut. After the fact I heard good things about using perlite or air layering, both were suggested a few times.

I propagated this hoya this summer. It had only 2 leaves and I put it directly into soil and now it has 5 leaves and doing great. I got the start from a friend who is 80 and the mother plant is over 40 years old. I'm so glad to get a great start going and hope I do as well as she has with her plant

I donât know if Iâm in the right group but I have a fiddle fig tree and Iâve had her since February 2024 and she has grown 6 leaves which Iâm very grateful for but Iâve noticed that she is just a stick. I love how fiddle figs look when they branch out. Is there a way I could make that happen?

I just got this pink princess and I'm not sure if I should keep it in water or plant her. Also what is the best soil for her. As you can see she has a great root. Thanks for any helpr

Could I propagate my Croton? The first picture is when I first got it (March 2024) and the second picture is it recently (January 2025). As you can see, it lost all is foliage over time, no matter how Iâve cared for it. When I repotted it, it had separate bulbs and I replanted 3 of them. 2 died, hence the one remaining. I donât think itâll grow its leaves to the way it was, so Iâm hoping to propagate. If itâs possible, how would I do it? Iâve never done a propagation. I donât wanna have to start over and buy a new plant!

Hi, I began to sow cactus seeds but 2 days later, they all grew mold đ Anyone know what I did wrong? I had them under a grow light, moistened soil, and covered the top with cling wrap. I also had them on a heated mat

Ok, I bought these cute vases OVER two years ago to use for propagating. These are the first cuttings I put in there!!! They rooted immediately and havenât grown since. I know the roots are long enough to plant, but I thought I would start seeing new leaf growth. They are just staying their cute little size. Are they just waiting for their new home?

My daughter gifted some clippings for me last year. Who says you have to plant them? Maybe I just need a bigger vase?

Ive had this fiddle fig at my office for a few months now but want one at home as well. What is the best way to propagate and best place to cut for better chance of survival?

This plant is dying and I was wondering if I still can propagate the two stems that are still alive. The only thing is I have never propagated anything before and I want to know where I should cut the stem, if I need to dry it out or if I need to transfer it into water. Hope someone can help me:)đ

What are your favorite pebbles to use when propagating in water?

Just joined plants so Iâll be spamming you all with pics over next few days. I got a rudsta cabinet a few weeks ago. Today, I cleared out a pot of alocasia pink princess and found 14 corms.

I over fertilized my pink princess. The leaves arenât very pretty. Can I cut off the new growths in a few months and propagate them?

Hello! I need some help with my plant! The app is saying that she is placed too dark! But sheâs right in a South-facing window all day with the blinds opened! Recently a whole branch/part of the plant fell out of the soil and didnât really have any roots, so I quickly threw it into some water! My question is⊠will this plant propagate in water!?

Hello plant friends! I need help please. I had a full-grown Florida Green Philo that kind of died. The plant on the right is from the original and it had roots so it was planted this in soil in the early summer. The remnants on the left were also from the original plant and have no roots. Right or wrong, I had these two pieces laying down in moist perlite and they have sprouted and have no roots. What should I now do with these so that they grow? Thank you for any advice that you can give me đ

Sprouted some lotus seeds. They look like tadpoles. Anyone have tips on next steps?
