Quick tip: Even though it roots fast, but it hates cold water! I only use room-temperature water or the stems turn mushy.
6: English Ivy
To propagate English ivy effectively, take 4-6 inch stem cuttings, remove the lower leaves from them, and let them root in water for a few weeks before transplanting.
7: Begonias
Begonias can be a little confusing because different types root in different ways.
No matter the type, keep the soil lightly moist and avoid soggy conditions, begonias dislike wet feet and usually need a few weeks to start rooting.
8: Jade Plant
With jade plants, patience pays off. It can root from the stem or leaf, so pick whatever you find easier to work with. Unfortunately, you do have to let the cutting dry and callus for 24 hours before placing it in soil. Succulents absolutely need this step.
Quick tip: I’ve ruined more jade cuttings by watering too early than anything else. I let the soil stay almost dry until roots appear.
9: African Violet
For African violets, I’d suggest propagating them using healthy stems with single leaves. They’re slow but steady.
