MRC passion that’s y u try with many some leaves may dry for no reason even if u did everything right u have a better chance of getting a succulent if u propagate more than u think u need
I really enjoyed this video. I clicked on it because I was trying to learn how to propagate succulents from leaves, it’s a new thing that I started as a hobby in the plants have made me happy. But I would like to say that the positivity you included at the end really made my day. I need to hear these words. Thank you for that extra message, I feel really good after watching this. It’s important to have self-care statements like these, I was not expecting to hear that initially when I clicked on this video but I’m glad that I did ♥️
Hi, Lauren! Thank you so much for the kind words. It’s heart-warming to hear that the positive message in my video made your day. I try to touch as many lives as possible in my own little way. We all can help make this world a better place, especially nowadays. You made my day...really early, too, as I’m responding to your comment at 4:20am. 😅 Huge apologies for the late response. I’ve been incredibly busy. I’m really hoping to find time to make more videos soon. I’m looking to buy a new laptop ‘cause I’m not able to use my current one for editing. I’m keeping my fingers crossed. I’m also sloooooowly trying to catch up on responding to comments. I’m about a month behind right now. 😔😅Thank you so much again for leaving this nice comment. I really appreciate it. Wishing you more blessings, love and good health! 🙏❤️💫
That's so true, Alyssa! That’s nice to hear! Thank you so much for the comment. I really appreciate it. Huge apologies for responding too late. Wishing you love, blessings, health and happiness! ❤️🙏💫
I am willing to learn, more so as a newbie about succulents, and so I am watching tips and wise advice from those who have gone this road ahead of me. I am perhaps years senior than my mentors, but I love to learn still and be wiser.
That is so nice to hear, Lolita! It’s never too late. Every single day with these succulents is time well spent. They are so rewarding to care for. ❤️ Warm welcome to you, on behalf of the Succulent Community. Happy Planting! Thank you so much, too for leaving this comment. So heart-warming...especially on a winter day (almost) here in “a little colder” Brentwood, CA. I totally love your comment, Lolita. ❤️☺️🌈
So true, Michelle! I, too, can never get over how cute they are! 😊 Thank you for this nice comment! I really appreciate it. More blessings your way! ❤️🙏🌈
That’s an awesome self-talk, Lulua! 👍👍👍 👌👌👌I hope this positivity will radiate on everyone right this very second, including me. I truly believe in this, too. Thank you so much! I really appreciate it! ❤️☺️🌈
I'm a beginner at this and my little baby echeveria ebony suffered from root rot 😭 I took off her leaves and chopped off the rotted parts of the stem. I'm feeling more confident in saving her with your video🤞Sending all the love and positivity from the Philippines 🤗
Hi Ana, I’m so glad that you’re able to save it. Just remember that they are better off being on the dry side. In fact, postponing watering up to 5 to 10 days more from you scheduled watering is still better than watering them one day earlier than schedule. That’s how more likely they are to die of short watering intervals than dry spells. Thank you so much for sharing your little story. Remember not to water the cut stems for two weeks, okay? Thank you so much again. I really appreciate your comment. Blessings to you! ❤️☺️🌈
Thank you Shiela for your videos. I come for the succulent learnings, but I end up with so much more because of your encouraging messages. You are a jewel on RU-vid. Keep making good quality content!
Thank you so much for this very kind comment. It is so heartwarming. I wish I have more time so I can create videos as often as I want. Thank you so much again. I really appreciate your comment. Wishing you blessings and good health in 2020 and beyond! ❤️🙏💫
Hi Diana! That’s an awesome self-talk! My apologies for the late response. I hope those who are waiting for a response from me will read this, too. Just recently, I made a decision to respond to newer comments. I have been trying to respond to older comments first, hoping to catch up. But I haven’t been successful. So instead of trying to do that (‘cause now, I’m a full year behind) I’ll start responding from newest to oldest. Thank you so much for the comment. I really appreciate it. Wishing you more blessings, love and good health! 🙏❤️💫
I love your vibe, collection and knowledge. I'm not new to succulents but I still get alot of enjoyment from your videos. The fact that you actually enjoy your plants really shines threw, to many youtubers who don't. Keep up the great work ❤
Hi, Flora! I’m so glad to hear that. Huge apologies for the late response. I’ve been incredibly busy. I’m really hoping to find time to make more videos soon. I’m keeping my fingers crossed. 😅Thank you so much for the kind comment. I really appreciate it. Wishing you more blessings, love and good health! 🙏❤️💫
You’re welcome! And thank you so much! That is such a noble thought. Thinking of others despite your pain. I really wish that it will soon pass. Wishing you more blessings in 2020! ❤️🙏💫
That’s an awesome self-talk statement! It’s really inspiring. Thank you so much for your kind words! I really appreciate it. More blessings to you and Happy Planting! ❤️☺️🌈
Hello, just discovered your channel. I just was searching for some succulent help and your vid came up. I watched and then Bam! You hit me with your vision boards and inspirational wisdom and I was gobsmacked! Thank you! I came for your succulent expertise and left with a heap of encouragement! Thanks for the help! God Bless!
Hello Jonathan, what an awesome message! Makes all the effort so worth it. Huge apologies for the late response. 😅 I’ve been so busy. I’m sloooooowly trying to catch up on responding to comments and inquiries. I can’t believe I’m 1 year behind now. 😔😅 Thank you so much for the comment. I really appreciate it. Wishing you more blessings, love and good health! 🙏❤️💫
Hello Dawn, that works, too. And yes, it’s true. If you mist far too often, it can be bad for them. As long as they are not showing signs of dehydration, misting is not even necessary. I only do it when temps are too high. Thank you for the comment. My apologies for the late response. I’ve been so busy. 😅 Wishing you more blessings, love and good health! 🙏❤️💫
Hi Sheila! Thank you for your bright and informative video 😊 I've got quite a few Echeverias propagating - you can get heaps of plants from each leaf 🍃. You are an inspiration for everyone. Bye
So true! 👌Thank you for the support, as always, Trevor! I know I keep saying it, but I would still say it again😆...I really appreciate your comment! ❤️🙏🌈
Hi! That’s nice to hear! Thank you so much for the comment. I really appreciate it. Huge apologies for responding too late. Wishing you love, health and happiness! ❤️🙏💫
Thank you for this video, Sheila. Very informative. I’ve just become a succulent parent over the past month. And enjoying the journey. As for my statement, “I am an ambassador for Jesus Christ, so I want to state there’s no other Saviour of the world but Jesus! He’s all we need, so come to Him and experience His unfailing love.”
That’s an awesome statement, Chloe! Thank you so much for sharing it with everyone! I really appreciate it! My apologies for the very late response. Wishing you more blessings! ❤️🙏💫
That’s a very good self-talk. Good judgement and judicious thinking is always a key to solving complex issues. Thank you so much for sharing that great self-talk, Candace. I hope people will come across your comment and learn and embrace it. I really appreciate it. ❤️☺️🌈

i was very lucky with one of my jades - one of the leaves had a bit of tearing at the bottom, and I wasn’t very enthusiastic about its future. However, something told me to keep it - and somehow, it survived and grew a baby! it’s definitely not common, but it is seemingly possible, as long as there’s some of the leaf end left
So glad to hear that! Thank you for the comment! My apologies for the late reply. 😅I have just started responding to the rest of the comments again. I’ve been so busy. I think I may have found a way to start making videos again. 🤞So, we’ll see! 😊Wishing you more blessings, love and good health! 🙏❤️💫

Hi Fran! At first, it feels like it’s taking forever and then, once they start sprouting, it gets joyfully overwhelming! 🤣😆 ‘Cause then, one will realize that there aren’t enough pots to replant them in. Hahaha Best of luck always! Thank you so much for your support by leaving a comment. I really, really appreciate it! ❤️🙏🌈
Thank you, Cherie! Huge apologies for the late response. I’ve been incredibly busy. I’m really hoping to find time to make more videos soon. I’m keeping my fingers crossed.

Find your videos so relaxing! Very refreshing to come watch your videos and get a little pep talk at the end 😘 just started propagating my succulents for the first time, nerve wracking but worth it if I get loads of new baby plants 😊
Hi, Eden! I’m glad you find my videos relaxing. Propagating is such a rewarding and fun experience! Seeing baby succulents sprouting is one of the greatest little gifts of nature. Thank you for your nice comment. I really appreciate it. Happy Planting and blessings to you! ❤️🙏🌈
Hi ! I am from the Philippines and i'm new to collecting and growing succulents and cacti and your video really enlightened me as to how to properly take care of my plants. Thank you for such informative videos ! :D
@@SucculentFame no worries! I aspire to have beautiful succulents like you do and I'm currently trying to propagate succulents exactly like this. Hoping for the best! 🙏
I have a feeling you can do it! Stay positive around them and keep smiling. They sense it, since they are living beings after all. Happy Planting! Best wishes to you! Thank you so much again! ❤️😃

excellent video! now im freaking bc i havent been misting them!!! ahhh!!! i have them on dry soil.....also i have a succulent that had two baby rosettes but my son knocked it over and broke the stem near the top, so half the stem is in soil and i have the top with one rosette and a leaf not attached to the stem with the other rosette barley hanging on, they were already so tiny so i dont know what to do with this poor mangeled plant..i had been watering and checking since this morning bc it was so dry its not absorbing it but then that happened so not sure what to do now..hopefully i can save it...i also really needed that reminder at the end of the video...my self talk hasnt been good lately....I AM SO GRATEFUL AND BLESSED IN MY LIFE..SO I WILL HELP AND BLESS AS MANY PEOPLE AS I CAN
It’s okay if you haven’t been misting. I think it’s quite cold where you are at from what I remember. 😅 I think. 🤣😆 I hope I’m not getting confused. You are in Canada, right? So, you are most certainly fine. You actually have one of the best growing conditions except in the winter, but there is always a solution to that. 🤣 if it is almost not hanging on, put those babies in a new pot, but first, did it break at the base? Can you send a photo through a direct message on instagram? I have the same name. I’m hoping to see it, ‘cause if it broke somewhere in the middle of the leaves, we might not be able to save that part. But the good news about that, is if the base is intact, newer leaves can grow again. 😃
Hi! I'm new to your channel and from the Philippines, i love the way you talk, it can easily follow and understand, keep on inspiring and sharing your knowledge about succulents. Don't you have cactus? God Bless!
Hi Rina, thank you so much. Welcome to my channel. That is so nice to hear. I was born there. 😃 I only have a few cacti. 😃 I’m still gathering the courage to start handling the very prickly ones. 🤣😆 I have the not so prickly cactus right now. I would love to have a Barrel Cactus and a Paddle Cactus someday soon. I just need to buy very thick gloves for it. I’m not a fan of thick gloves that’s why I’m always using surgical gloves. I still want to keep my tactile senses and dexterity with handling succulents, that’s why I use the thinnest gloves. 🤣😆 Do you have a lot of cacti? I would see a lot of really lovely succulents in photos from the Philippines. I really would love to come and go back there for a visit. Not in the near future though, but someday. 😃God bless you, too! Thank you so much for leaving your comment. I really appreciate it. ❤️🙏🌈
That’s a very good self-talk, Lydia! Thank you so much for sharing! I really appreciate it. Huge apologies for responding too late. Wishing you love, blessings, health and happiness! ❤️🙏💫
You're welcome! Thank you so much for the comment. I really appreciate it. Huge apologies for responding too late. Wishing you love, blessings, health and happiness! ❤️🙏💫
I'm new to propagating succulents. I am happy I found you. My question is when laying down a curvy leaf either in a box or soil, does it matter if the 2 ends face up or should they face down into the soil? Thank you.
They still will sprout regardless of orientation. I have seen leaves grow roots and pups even if they are all piled up. 😃 Thank you for asking this question. I really appreciate it. ❤️☺️🌈
im a first timer for planting an succulent I have a question.... Can i always use leaves for propagation?? How many days do it will grow babies? How can i water my succulent??
I’ll answer it for you ^^ 1- well yeah! Leaves can always be used for propagation! Also, if your succulent have stems, and the stems dosent have any leaf, try to preserve it because it’ll eventually grow tiny baby leaf! 2- it depends on the environment and how you water them~ 3- I suggest you to water em once a week! If you over-water them, they’re roots could rot and we don’t want that ^~^ (Please correct me if I’m wrong :0 )
All of these answers are correct. And to add to this, too, most succulents do propagate from leaves except some few ones, such as some aeoniums, but you can propagate most aeoniums through cuttings. Thank you for replying to our friend’s question. I really appreciate both of you for this interaction. Endless blessings to both of you! ❤️🙏🌈
I am a child of the Most High God, my confidence is in Christ, and so I will be thankful for the forgiveness of my sins and eternal life in Him. Thank you for this informative video 😊
You’re welcome, Lori! And thank you so, so much for that self-talk statement. We all need to hear that and live our lives with that amount of faith in mind. Thank you so much again! I really appreciate your comment! Blessings to you! ❤️☺️🌈
Hi, Rene! Thank you so much for the comment. I really appreciate it. Huge apologies for responding too late. Wishing you love, blessings, health and happiness! ❤️🙏💫
Hi Thuy, I have another video where I showed water propagation. You are so right. They propagate in water, too. Thank you for sharing your strategy with the community. I really appreciate it. ❤️☺️🌈
Thank you for the comment, Andrea! My apologies for the late reply. I have just started responding to all of the comments. Wishing you more blessings, love and good health! 🙏❤️💫

You’re welcome! My apologies for the seriously late response. Thank you so much for the comment. I really appreciate it. Wishing you more blessings! ❤️🙏💫
Hi Nikhat, I’m so glad to hear that you are trying to propagate. It is going to be so much fun! It’s so rewarding to see baby succulents. It’s actually really easy. 👌 Thank you for sharing. I really appreciate it. ❤️☺️🌈
I did air propagation and have little babies. Mine were from a leaf; do i need to remove the leaf i used for propagating? or do i just leave it to rot and let nature take over? leaf is wrinkled and shrivelled. I've recently transferred them to pots with cactus soil- but don't know what to do with the big leaf
Hello! Mom leaf would fall off. In fact, letting it rot and fall off is the best way. They provide for the babies, so they are better off intact until they shrivel and dry up. Thank you, Merika for responding to her question. I’m not too sure why they don’t show the yellow stripes, too. It’s been puzzling me, too. I wish I know the answer to that. As for the duration of each stages, I’d say months and months. 😅 It takes a lot of patience and faith, but it pays off. It’s been awhile, so I’m not sure about the season, but I would propagate regardless of the season. At least, out here in California. My apologies for the late response. I hope those who are waiting for a response from me will read this, too. Just recently, I made a decision to respond to newer comments. I have been trying to respond to older comments first, hoping to catch up. But I haven’t been successful. So instead of trying to do that (‘cause now, I’m a full year behind) I’ll start responding from newest to oldest. Thank you so much for the comment. I really appreciate it.

🌎❤️🕊😊 😊 Hello Sheila! Thank You So Much For Sharing Your Skills! This Is My First Time Watching You On RU-vid Videos! I Love Your Video On Succulents! I Hope You Will Makes More Video On Succulents. This My First Attempts To Do Succulents! Somehow The Cutting of Succulents I Order On Line All Of Them Died ! Do Make Your Owns Succulents Soil Mix? Good Bless. Stay Safe!
Hello Maria, thank you! In the past, I was using fast draining soil. These days, I just use regular dirt and I got better results with it. In fact, I have been wanting to make a video about it, but I havent found the time to make one. Thank you for the question. Wishing you more blessings, love and good health! 🙏❤️💫
This is amazingggg😍🤩 I’ve actually got some new succulents and my old succulent doesn’t go to well so I’m thinking of cutting it but I’m kinda scared that it might not survive (plus it’s my favorite one) Have any advice?
Hi, Ana! If it’s showing signs of advanced deterioration, might as well take the risk of cutting it and replanting. It has higher chance of surviving if you’ll be able to cut the still healthy part. If it is only showing mild signs, just don’t water it for three weeks and it will bounce back. This is just if it is showing signs of overwatering. My apologies for the very late response. December is always the busiest month of the year. Thank you for leaving a message. I really appreciate it. More blessings to you! ❤️🙏💫
They'll want to be: 1) Mature (big) enough - to have enough energy to shoot roots / growth 2) Not broken at the base 3) Misted daily (see point 3 at 2:23) I've also seen comments that say certain succulents just don't propagate by leaf. (N.B. I'm still propogating my first succulents so these are just tips I've read.) Happy propagating!
Hi Suchita, Elliot S is right. Some succulents don’t propagate from leaves. Most Aeoniums don’t. What kind of succulent are you trying to propagate. Have you tried not misting them at first? I hope I’ll find your response. I’m not sure, but I don’t always get notifications for responses. Huge apologies for the late response. I’ve been incredibly busy. I’m really hoping to find time to make more videos soon. I’m keeping my fingers crossed. Thank you so much for leaving an inquiry. I really appreciate it. Wishing you more blessings, love and good health! 🙏❤️💫
Hi! Only on extremely hot days. It can go as high as upper 90’s here in Brentwood. Those are the days when I really need to mist. This is regardless of whether they have roots or not. Huge apologies for the late response. 😅 I’m sloooooowly trying to catch up on responding to comments. I’m about two to three months behind right now. 😔😅 Thank you so much for the inquiry. I really appreciate it. Wishing you more blessings, love and good health! 🙏❤️💫 Happy Holidays!
Hi! Only on days when temps are very high. It can go as high as upper 90’s to low 100’s here in Brentwood. This is regardless of whether they have roots or not. I thought I responded to this comment, but I couldn’t find my response. Might as well respond again ‘cause I forgot that this year, we had readings that went past 100. We actually had heat waves.

Hi Viri, unfortunately, the amount of time varies. My apologies that I’m not able to give you an exact answer. They will just sprout babies whenever. Thank you for the question. Wishing you more blessings, love and good health! 🙏❤️💫
i tried to used the air lift propagation with water, after 4 days some roots are sprouting already, do we need to plant it right away in the soil or wait a little baby pups come out before potting it? thank you for sharing this vdeo😊
Hi Yvette, eristent’s tip is correct. I would recommend to wait a little longer. Huge apologies for the late response. 😅 I’ve been so busy.
