My rescued Imperial Red, Rome, had severe root and stem rot which required him to basically regrow from scratch (save one healthy leaf). He has been propogating in water for about a month or so -- do these roots look long enough to transition him into soil or should I wait a bit longer?

can you guys ID this for me? i think is some type of begonia but i wanna know which one
Excited to see how these propagations root up! I have a Pilea Peperomioides, Cissus Discolor, Philodendron Hederaceum, and my Fiscus that I just chopped spontaneously yesterday. Wish me luck!!
I just planted some more babies!
This whole beautiful stem on my polka dot begonia just broke off 😭 How can I save or propagate it?!
Is my spider plant clipping ready to be transferred to soil? It’s my first time and I’m not sure. Any advice is appreciated!❤️
So I wasn’t actually sure this could happen until I saw it with my own eyes. Somehow managed to save and successfully “start” one single leaf from a now-dead (one over-watering gone horribly wrong, lesson learned) echeveria. What now? I’m new to keeping succulents (alive, at least) and I have NEVER propagated anything in my life! I am thrilled by this little thing, though, and I want to keep it alive! Any and all advice is appreciated.
I'm so proud of my butterfly bush props! I had no idea butterfly bush could even propagate. 🤯 Back in February, a huge pile of snow fell off the roof and chopped my butterfly bush up. I simply took a couple of the broken branches and stuck them in the ground. To my surprise, they were still green months later. So i potted them and now they're in full bloom!
I have a very tall aloe plant that I’m wondering if I should repot into a bigger pot or can I cut the stem, let it callous and then repot? I am worried that the more he grows he will get top heavy and break.
What is the best way to propagate a jade plant from a leaf cutting?
Any tips for moving water props to soil? I have been up and down with my Monstera Dubia but putting the plant in water saved it. It now has long strong roots and new leaves. I want to move it into my Lizard’s vivarium but am afraid of killing it from shock. I’ve heard adding soil slowly to the water can make for a smoother transition- anyone had luck with this? Thanks!!
Is this ready to be potted or should I wait? If I wait, for how long?
So yesterday morning I went outside to let the dogs out and noticed a bright orange glow from my anthurium fredrichstalli(sp?). Little did I know it had an inflo AND it was pregnant. Needless to say, My morning was filled with seed cleaning and planting. Now we wait!
I'm looking to propagate golden pothos to make it fuller at the base. I was told by an employee at a local florist/house plant store that I can just cut one of the stems between two leaves and stick into the soil. Is this correct? Or is it better to propagate it in water first, then plant it into the soil? Thank you!
I was about to pot this pink princess that I propagated a bit ago, but the top of the roots have this weird white stuff on it. I’m assuming it’s some type of fungus but I am unsure of what I should do about it before potting it into soil. Would a good rinse of the roots be fine enough? Or do I need to do more? The plant looks otherwise healthy and even has a new leaf coming in
Love my new multi planted pot! Can you guess all the different plants???
What are the pros/cons to water prop vs soil prop? Idk what to use more often, but I've been using water propagation and it works out well most of the time. Any tips?
Trying to propagate some english laurel, as cut off large stem. Never done this before and know i am definitely doing it wrong. Is it even possible? Any advice appreciated
