Succulents are amazing plants! Once you buy one, you will inevitably end up with more!....seriously....and they won't even cost you a penny. They reproduce asexually!

CUTTINGS: Using a sharp pair of scissors, many succulents can be cut from the stem. After removing the bottom leaves and allowing the stem to callous over, it will begin to grow roots and grow a new plant.

OFFSETS: Sometimes, a parent plant will bud new, smaller plants from it's base. These can be removed and used to start a larger single specimen.
