Planting

From Early Spring TO Late Summer

To take baby plants from the mother plant, set a small pot filled with damp potting mix next to the plant. Sink a new plantlet into the soil of the small pot, so that the root buds are barely covered. You may need to use a bent paperclip to hold the plantlet in place. It should root in 2-3 weeks. After that time, sever it from the parent plant.

Propagation

From Early Spring TO Late Summer

The plantlets growing on wiry stems from the mother plant - often called "babies" - are easy to propagate, giving you an ongoing supply of plants. For sure success, choose young, small plantlets for propagating because the larger plantlets are older and will root slowly.
