Succulent leaf propagation

Post by kikithor »

I've taken several leaves and most have roots.. but it's been a month or more and no new leaves?

It can take some time. Especially since it is winter, give them time. Propagating from leaves takes time. I have had some that sit there for 3 or 4 months before they send up a new shoot.

Depending on the species it can take much, much longer. I have a Hoya leaf sitting here for two years now...

(odds are you have a crassulaceae at hand. Then springtime will probably give you new growth)
