Leaf cutting propagation is feasible for many plants but not easy for some of them. Peperomia watermelon is one of the easiest plants for this purpose. You may get a small number of plantlets by from a leaf petiole. However, if ya leaf is cut into sections (see the photo) and plant the sections in soil or sand, potentially, a new plantlet may grow out from each leaf vein.
Leaf propagation is not only very useful for obtain new plants but also very interest to watch new baby plants emerging from a leaf section and to grow into mature plants. Observation of this process can be an excellent learning project for young kids andĀ a great fun for our plant lovers.
