Then just lay it on a pot of compost. As I didn’t have anything suitable to pin it down. I held it in place with some small stones. It’s just to make sure the leaf has contacted with the compost. Then I put it in the heated propagator. As things are warming up you might be ok with an unheated propagator or a cloche/plastic bag over it.
mine is out of the propagator now.
Basically I pretty much did this https://www.gardenersworld.com/how-to/gr...-cuttings/
Which is the link Veggie posted just after our leaves arrived. You probably missed it. As you had far more important stuff going on at the time.
Yep, I definitely missed that memo. I used Dr. Hessayan's method, cut leaves into pieces and planted the edges into soil. I will give your way a go. It can stay on the windowsill in the kitchen, that should be warm enough. What I'm going to do with several baby snails, I don't know. Friends don't know what's in the offing if I get babies.
