Aside from buying all the plants to fill a pot, what's the best way to do this? I know some species spread like wildfire, and I have adelae, but they seem to die for no reason for me. I still have some left (question about this later) that I'm hoping grow and spread in their pot, but the biggest ones are dying. Maybe buy an adult of a certain species and take leaf cuttings? I don't care what species, really. I'd also like one that would like it outside in the sun here in the PIttsburgh, PA, area, which would rule out adelae.
I have a bunch of D. tokaiensis seedlings that are tiny, so I can't look to them to fill a pot anytime soon.
Oh, the question about my D. adelae. I used to have two mama plants from Lowe's, but they die when I take them from the death cubes, but not before making little babies. Well the biggest baby (nowhere near as big as any of the mamas) has been dying off now for a month or so. It's still green, but no dew, stopped growing, not vibrant at all, wilting a little.... Would these leaves produce anything if I cut them and put them in water? My one mama plant's leaf just fell into the soil and I noticed babies growing from it before. It would be great if I could put this dying plant to some use.
