try sticking it in water to propagate — you could also try leaf props

Also, thanks for your reply

you bet! doesn’t need to be fully submerged, just the root end an inch or two

Thanks eatyacarbs!!

Ypu can do either water or soil. Make sure the water is just over that white/brown portion. If it's over the leaves it can cause rotting. And change the water every few days You may also want to try dapping on some rooting powder or add something like Prop Drops to aid root growth

I definitely appreciate the help Wolfen🙏🏾
