This is my first successful snake prop. I kept reading that they were super easy to propagate online but mine never did anything (except die). This was one tall leaf for MONTHS that did not die, but did not grow roots at all. So I decided to try cutting the notches and making it shorter, and moved the jar to a different window. Boom. I guess I know which window they like now!!
