In this collection you will find leaves that I select from
my best varieties
including:
many shades of green and blue-green
varied sizes, shapes and textures,
rosettes, stripes,
fuzzies, extra large, blues, purples, oranges, reds and more!
Note:
I harvest MATURE leaves which may or may not reflect the overall color
of the growing
plant but are PERFECT for rooting.
For example a muted tone or grayish leaf may actually be from
an overall 'blue' plant harvested from the bottom of the plant.
SHIPPING

Directions:
Starting succulents from leaves is incredibly rewarding as well as
an inexpensive way to begin or expand your varieties.
1.
Spread leaves on a piece of newspaper to dry out for a day. This will callous growing tips.
The growing tip is the end of the leave that was attached to the stem.
The new plant will emerge here on
most leaves.
2. Prepare a shallow container (1 to 2" deep) with succulent soil.
I use pie tins or the plastic containers left over from food products.
Make sure there are holes for drainage.
2. Place leaves with calloused end BARELY buried in soil. See photos.
Some growers place leaves on top of soil without burying growing end. Others plant
leaves upside down to make sure the growing tip is in contact with soil.
3. LIGHTLY spray with water and place in area with good light.
4. Gently spray with water every FEW days ONLY IF SOIL IS DRY. Sometimes leaves and/or plantlets
get dislodged and you will have to adjust them to make sure roots are buried in soil.
5. In about 2 weeks you could see signs of growth on some of the leaves
(usually tiny roots followed by leaf buds).
Some leaves take a LONG time to sprout.
I usually have about an 80% success rate using the buried end method if you can
keep the soil dry between waterings.
6.
When plants are established, the original leaf usually withers and dies.
7. As your leaves form new plants, be sure to remove decayed leaves that never got started and
decayed leaves of rooted plants being careful not to dislodge any roots that may be attached.
8. Be patient and you will be rewarded with many new plants.
