What’s the best way to propogate a silver nerve plant? I tried in water but it wilted right away.

Water still is my best method but keep the humidity high since the leaves will lose moisture until roots form to take up the water.

I have had lucky putting them in a prop box with moss and perlite

I put mine in straight perlite today.

That’s a good idea!! I did that with some snake plant cuttings and they seem to be doing well

I’ve had success with both sphagnum moss and putting them directly in soil.
