The top rosette can be cut off and then allowed to be callused off (allowed to dry and form a callus on the cut end) and then allowed to root. The base will branch out and form new rosettes. They will need light.

I just did what wantonamara suggested; different plant but same procedure.
I cut top part off, let it callus for a while (in my case 2weeks-I got busy...).
The original stem stayed in same pot, and in less than 2weeks started 'sprouting' new babies.

original plant:
{{gwi:619485}}

stem showing new growth:
{{gwi:606461}}{{gwi:606462}}{{gwi:606463}}

After top has callused (few days should be enough), plant it in free draining soil, do not water for couple of days & maybe don't put in full sun for few days. After that, good light would be desirable.

I forgot about the fallen leaves - I would keep them, some if not all should root for you and you will have more plants. I try to root any leaves (as long as they are not dryed out). I usually put them on top of soil and just mist lightly every few days. Here few of my attempts:
{{gwi:619490}}{{gwi:619491}}{{gwi:619492}}{{gwi:619494}}{{gwi:619495}}{{gwi:619496}}

They are growing! Rina

Another method that I have a lot of luck with is to put the calloused stems in a pot of rocks and I water the rocks. When the roots form, they are ready for dirt. The plants can not take up moisture from the ground until they have roots. They are not like cut flowers. They just rot. That is why we tell you to mist them until the roots form. The rock method guarantees perfect draining but gives a dark moist atmosphere.

I hadn't understood that before, nicely explained Wanton, thank you.

I think I heard this from Norma several years back. Then I tried it . I have gotten a nice snarl of long pink roots on my graptoveria and ghost plants. It works on aloeand all sorts of succulents.

Thank you all so much for your help. I will do it tomorrow..... Maybe I don't know about the soil.... It it mostly rocks and just a tad of soil? Should I bury the leaves completely with the rocks the root them?
Thanks again,
Carla

The stem end in the rocks is all you need. When you do it with just rocks. One can lift out the leaf or stem and check on the root situation and put it right back without breaking roots. If I remember I will show you with a picture tomorrow.

Thanks for the explanations Rina and Wanton. Very educational and interesting.
