Tips on Split Vein Propagation? in the Propagation forum

I love cutting and creating new plants, and I love trying new methods of propagation! I recently read about split vein propagation, a form which I have yet to try. I intend on trying it with some angel wing begonia leaves in a few days. Does anyone use this method and have any tips for a first timer?

My hands are either covered in soil, or covered in flour. Whether it's plants or yeasted bread, I will grow something beautiful from the simplest of things.

This is my go-to link for propagation. If you click on the little icon of a speaker you will hear a pleasant voice giving more information for each type.

Begonias propagate so easily from stem cuttings, I've never wanted or needed to try leaf cuttings. For any method, results might be best during summer.

The golden rule: Do to others only that which you would have done to you.

Try to be more valuable than a bad example.
