I love succulents, they're so pretty to look at and super easy to look after. I'm not a natural gardener, I don't think. Although I've grown up around enthusiastic greenfingered family members, I've never had much success with my own plants. It's only recently that I've plucked up the courage to proactively propagate my succulents.
Needles and Leaves offers a coprehensive guide for propagating succulents, which I followed to the word through fear of messing up. Pulling off leaves and decapitating the heads of these little plants seems unnecessarily cruel until you realise you end up with twice as many as you started with, maybe even more. I now have two pots full of little potential new plants, fingers cross they all take root!
