Drop those on top of a bed of soil and they will likely sprout new plants!

I don’t know why the leaves are dropping, I would need to see the plant itself. Mine drop leaves occasionally and I just let them sprout and grow a new plant.

Mine has dropped leaves when I overwater it

#### Crystal replied on 2025-07-18

I think that’s what i did

Then leaves are beautiful \& healthy looking….so I’m guessing the mother plant is healthy.

I don’t know why it would be dropping leaves (they look healthy to me) but I second the people saying you can propagate these so don’t throw them away! Fill a saucer with succulent soil mix and nestle the leaves in there once they’ve calloused, after a few weeks you should hopefully have some roots and you can pop them back in the pot with their mother plant.
