the ONLY stupid question.. is the UNASKED question ....

i do NOT believe they will root ...

i seem to recall someone swearing to God they do ....

you HAVE to have crown material .. the middle part between the leaves and the roots.. i do NOT understand how roots can skip the middle and root directly ...

that said.. even if there is the slightest trace of crown on the bottom of the leaf.. i suppose .. if the leaf was torn directly from the crown.. that something could happen ...

but i see no way that a leaf.. cut in the middle of the stem .. could root ...

all that said.. PROVE ME WRONG.. lol ... nothing lost in trying.. eh??

dont recognize the name.. welcome.. come back often..

Thanks for the info. I've been told I can grow anything if I can stick in the ground (not a pot however-I do better with outside plants). So guess I won't lose anything but to try! Originally from South GA, I dug up a lot of my plants including a 5-year old hosta that never produced over 3 leaves--must have been the heat, or the mesquitos--and planted it here in NC. I've split that plantagenia probably 5 times and have several very beautiful ones now. So I've expanded and added more this year! We shall see!
