# I just got a snake plant propagation and the leaf is not looking…

_Posted by PLANTS!!🪴🌱 on 2026-05-14_

I just got a snake plant propagation and the leaf is not looking good. It has cracks but on the inside it has a thin layer still attached and it looks like it will grow back together. Will it grow back together? Is that ok?

Ok thanks! It is my first snake plant and propagation so I was very worried

In my experience propagating snake plants, the new growth comes from the bottom where the cut is and the leaf cutting its growing from never continues growing. So, as long as the part where the roots will come out is healthy i think youll be fine! The leaf looks really healthy to me, just has some dings and bruises. No biggie imo :3
