I'm not sure what soil mix to plant this in! I'm thinking something like a classic chunky orchid bark/perlite/sphag mix, but I'm not totally sure. Is it even ready to pot? She's been in water for approx. 2 months now. I've never had luck w/ monsteras 😭

I got these leaves in a bouquet and threw them in a vase. These things started growing out of the leaves. Any idea what I have here or how to move forward?

So I was looking at the real plant section at IKEA and saw this portion of a parlor palm just laying there so I scooped it up and brought it home and dunked it in some water. It's not doing much, in fact it seems to be losing colour so I'm just wondering if I'm propagating this correctly. There was a bit of mold so I rinsed it under cool water gently and washed the glass. Does this need to be in soil?

Poor plant was obviously struggling in the heat. Plus being an outdoor grocery store plant, it was low on the maintenance schedule. I forgot to take a picture of the sad parent plant, but I'm going to try to do my best by it's offspring.

Wish us luck, dudes!

Hello all! I got a cutting of an umbrella tree and I want to make sure I don’t kill it! This is the cutting (cut with razor blade). It was cut, then allowed to dry for a few hours before being dipped into the rooting hormone and stuck into potting soil. I put a loose gallon ziplock over it for humidity. Is there anything I am missing?

I have a friend who has now hundreds of plants by buying them from large stores and then cuts what they need, propagates the cuttings and then returns the plant and gets all their money back! gets away with it every time
What do you think? I don’t agree with it but they think because it’s only large corporations it’s okay

Had a lot more but didn't realize I could plant them until adding the broth. This was the only one that made it. First time prop lifting. This is fun.

hello! found this snapped off near the “rare succulents” section in walmart. there were others like it but it was literally labeled “rare succulent” so i’m not sure what it is. any ideas on who this beauty is and how i can propagate?

So many today plus some had roots :) some help identifying these would be great, thanks

Today was a success at a big box store

They turned black and withered away ***months*** ago (the ones that just look like part of the soil). I stopped even looking at the pot. No water or anything. I was about to toss the pot to allow some fern offshoots to root, then I see the tiniest growths ❤️

Edit: thank you for pointing it out, I understand now that it’s not a jade. I’m not disappointed at all, I’m always excited for a mystery plant to pop up so I’m happy regardless!

They were lying on the shelves at Ikea and I thought why not.

I’ve had this plant in water for 2 years now and it’s got a healthy root system! Took about 6 months for the first root to even appear. I’ve been avoiding potting it because I didn’t want it to die and I read that adding dirt to the water can help it adapt. However, since adding a small handful of dirt, it’s been dropping its leaves and the new leaf up top has stopped growing.

Did I add too much dirt?

Took a long time for it to grow secondary roots but it happened!! So excited

I acquired these today and would like to give them the best change in life. Will this work?

Succulent mix potting soil, kept moist with a spray in a shallow pot?

Also, anybody recognise who I liberated?

Thanks in advance! 🌱🪴

I have collected cuttings of a few types of aglaonemas recently (pink chinese evergreen, philippine evergreen and white stem), and I have been trying to propagate them in water. I had the pink one in water with some liquid fertiliser for around 12 weeks with no changes (besides some of the leaves yellowing a little bit), and I saw online that you should callous the cuttings before putting them in the water, so I got them out, cut off the ends that had been soaking in water, and let them callous for a few days. It has been 6 days since they went back into the water, so I’m not really expecting much yet, but I got the other two varieties more recently, and tried a similar method of callousing and then propagating in water, but the white stem specifically got super floppy, and I’m concerned that maybe callousing them was not the right move.

If anyone has any tips I would appreciate them a lot!! I’m open to doing soil propagation if that would work better, though I do generally prefer water propagating so I can track the root development in the early stages.

Philodendron melanochrysum! Pushing 2’ leaves now with monster cataphylls:) second pick is what she looked like originally🫪

This morning I searched for ways to use the pile of La Fermière terracotta yogurt jars we have accrued, and a post from this sub came up.

It’s been a while since I propagated anything, and it was lovely to see your prop cuties!

(Most recent was 3 yrs ago, some mint that now threatens the planter it’s in )

I’m speechless. The time. The patience. The sheer dedication to getting my babies to root. This IDIOT ruined it all in TWO GODDAMN SECONDS

Anyways. Lamb roast for dinner. How about you guys?
