my mom was a whiz, and taught me how to propigate them. (and I love doing this)

When I left home, I had around 20 plants. My husband has been able to keep about half to 75% of them alive.

But, it took a good week’s worth of showing him “see how the leaves are pointing downward now? that’s when they’re asking for water”

“see how now, after you’ve watered them, the leaves are pointing upward? very different, right?”

I sometimes go to the nursery and want to cry when I see all the broken off leaves from being moved around.

I bring them home, stick them in rooting hormone, and pot them.

I’ve got every color from white to almost black-purple.

:D
These are goregous!
Try snipping off a few of the outer leaves, and potting them in violet mix—I bet you’ll end up with so many plants you won’t know where to put them!
