New Babies!

Even though I did the research and watched all the videos, I really didn’t believe this would work. 

Remember the big, wonky money tree I chopped wayyyyy back in an effort to save it and encourage new growth?

It worked! There’s at least 4 shoots starting. So exciting!

And the African violet I divided, keeping the mother plant and 8 babies (plus 3 leaves potted in soil and 4 leaves I’m trying to root in water)?

So many new leaves! 

All 8 re-plants are doing well and have put out new growth. Of the 3 individual soil-potted leaves, 2 are looking good and growing new roots. The water-based leaves aren’t doing anything yet but they supposedly take longer to root. 

I’m glad I checked them today - the wick watering system was working a little too well. All the babies were looking water-logged so they’ll dry out for a bit before I put new wicks back in. 

Crossing fingers they all continue to thrive.
