    I tried rooting some cuttings of the same plant and it didn’t work…the leaves shriveled. I read that you can just put the cutting directly into soil. I use a root hormone on the tip beforehand. I have to wait for another cutting before I try it that way. Good luck either way! ☺️

      I’m just a newbie so I don’t know of any substitutions- hopefully someone else will reply. I guess you could try planting in soil without it. Looks like you have a lot of clippings that you could experiment with. ☺️

      Did it work when you planted them directly in soil?

      I’m still waiting for enough growth to take another clipping! 😊

    I tried rooting a polka dot plant in water for many weeks, but it didn’t work. I hope you have better luck than me! 🍀
