A place where propagate-able plants are given a second chance at life

Share your Home Depot, Lowe's, and general floor finds here! If it's less than a full plant, you're going to propagate it, and it didn't come from a curated public plant we'd love to see it!

  • PROPPING 101!!

If you have any questions about what to do with your props regarding stage-by-stage, look no further! It's all in this Google Doc I made!

  • CRESTED PROPS!!

Wondering if your prop is crested? Is your pup looking a little weird with clustered sprouts? Take a peek at this Google Doc and find out!

  • RULE CHANGES!!

**As of 28th of March 2018, we now allow and encourage propagations of plants that are not succulents! Show it all off here! Anything you can propagate goes here.

**As of 1st of November 2019 there will be a minor crackdown on memes and merchandise. Plant merch is cool, but this is a sub for propagation and advice somewhat exclusively. Your fun succulent merch probably works better in /r/succulents or /r/houseplants.

**Please message mods before any competitions or sweepstakes.

Philo cutting started to rot, cut the end and it keeps going.

Literally noticed yesterday. I cut the rot off with clean scissors and put a little dab of peroxide at the end. Piece I’m holding came off tonight. Very worried about the red spot that’s what it looked like yesterday before it rotted. This is a philo mayoi cutting I’d really prefer to keep it alive. Only a leaf is growing out no root yet which is why I’m extra worried.

Successfully rooted a soft wood grapevine cutting. Yay!

I took a cutting from my Somerset grape vine several weeks ago because I was worried it might not survive winter (I'm pretty far up in Canada and it will be it's first winter) and then sort of forgot about it. It was in a glass of water in my plant room in the basement and I just stumbled upon it today while cleaning up the place. Looks like it did grow roots! And there's even new leaves growing too! I hope I will manage to keep it alive until I can move it outside in spring.

Will this snake plant start?

A small leaf tip I cut off and let callous overnight, I just placed it into some lightly moist soil like this about an eighth inch deep. Is this an ok method?

Any tips?

I drove quite a ways to get this plant on clearance. They had sold out but there was a beautiful leaf remaining 😂

Would you try to prop? I have rooting hormone 🤷🏻‍♀️

Should I cut the stem ?

I saved this from a seller I have a few that I saved but will it grow on the stem ? It’s a felt bush.

How should I go about rooting this Sargent Juniper?

I just have one cutting

I have some crappy miracle grow soil, perlite, vermiculite, and sand to work with. I could prop it in water, but it’s generally not recommended for these guys.

I’m thinking a humidity dome for this guy since this time of year the parent plant was probably dormant.

Any suggestions for where to cut? Should I leave some of the brown woody part?

Can This Offshoot of Sansevieria Cylindrica Be Propagated? It Fell Off on Its Own.

I found this offshoot of my Sansevieria cylindrica that fell off on its own. I'm not sure why it happened, but can it be propagated? Any tips would be appreciated!
