oh no better luck next time. primarily, i could be unclear but does not look like thereās a node for roots to grow anyway. but the wilting is likely from the water getting into the open cutting. itās typically important to let the cutting callus to slow this from happening ā¹ļø
3 gillningarI agree that I donāt see a node, so a new plant wouldnāt grow from this cutting. Itās a zombie leaf
0 gillningarI cut below the node of the newest leaf, is that not correct?
0 gillningarI donāt see it. The node would look like a line or bump on the stem. Itās not typically that high on the leaf

Unfortunately yes. There is no node to be able to water propagate.
0 gillningarI think I see the node itās just rotted and shrivelled.
1 gillaI have much better luck propagating in water for about three weeks - makes it much easier if you include an Ariel root also as the roots quickly proliferate out from there! Maybe try propagating in water next time? Itās all learning šš¼good luck!
1 gillaOh and change the water weekly as a minimum, I learned the hard way!
