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!
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!
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!
**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.

These are my first successful props that have grown roots this long. Just keep waiting right? Should I try to bury the roots at all?
Why is it that you have to remove the leave from the point where you want the cutting to grow roots?
I think this is just a single leaf, what's next? Will it grow a stem and more leaves?
What is the biggest collection you’ve had of prop leaves at one time?? I’m new to all of this and I think I might have overdone it. 🤣🤣. Please share all your pics!!!
Hello proppers!
I found this Esqueleto branch at the store and the cashier didn't charge me for it. It has a node so I thought I was in a good place, but then I discovered that the second leaf had a completely rotted third leaf growing within so I cut it out.
What's the best path going forward? Should I cut off both leaves completely and put the node in spagnum or is there a chance that another leaf with grow within the second one?
When it's the last day of the year at the local theme park that's chock full of beautiful hanging baskets and they're just going to let them freeze and get thrown into a compost heap, you ask nicely and get some clippings. They even offered to pull some out of the trash that they had just pulled from the beds but I wasn't about carrying dirt all day.
new to the succulents, cacti and more intricate plants. this little piece came in the pot of my shreks ear and i left it. this is it now. have i done something, will i get a plant, and if so what plant will i get?
Leaves are still green. Not all branches have seeds, so I could use those.
I’ve propagating a houseplant and am wondering if I can mail cuttings to SC? I have read into packaging it, but just read where you may have to label the box in a special way or that some states have strict rules?
found these surprise leaf babies at the bottom of a big plant! they have roots growing, yes, but weirdly they have tiny fuzzy leaves growing out of their bottoms as well! are those the new plants? if i stick the roots in soil i will bury the new little leaves - which seems wrong. should i just lay the leaf flat on the soil ? will it just grow like that ? thank u!
It has roots, it has a pup. Do I plant it in a pot and treat like regular echeveria? Do I add fertilizer? Is it okay to be put under grow lights?
