I think it's a good looking plant, but it is painfully slow. <br /><br />I also am with you about propagating things even if I don't like the plant or need more. Just the act of propagation is fun.

It's my nature." <br /><br />I LOVE it! I'm exactly the same way! I've noticed that the ZZ plant is a very slow grower. I've never tried propagating it from leaf cuttings before.
