Portulaca molokiniensis Cutting Taking Off

The kids and I took a fallen leaf from one of our Portulaca molokiniensis plants and noticed it had a root shoot. We stuck it in our propagation tray and were able to get it to grow. I recently transplanted it into a bigger container and just finally removed the original leaf that this plant emerged from. We are looking forward to growing this plant from a single leaf into a fully grown specimen, and applying what we learned here to see if we can propagate others from our existing plants as we trim them up.
