Just thought of that option today! I will, any tips? I’ve propped Jade successfully…same!?

I don’t know how to, sadly. Wish I could help.

My candy cane crassula prop is still doing well! It’s a very slow grower, but to prop it try to cut a bit with some stem, enough that can go in the soil! It will want a very chunky light soil that drains well. Before you put it in the soil, let the freshly cut part of the prop callus!! It won’t need regular watering at first just a tiny bit. Patience is key and it should root:) good luck!! It can be tricky for sure I’m definitely still learning a lot too but hope this helps a little

You can also just prop the leaves themselves, I’ve never tried this method yet!
