How to Take Cuttings from Aeonium - Tree Houseleek

Aeoniums, commonly known as 'Tree Houseleeks' are fantastically architectural and easy to grow succulents found mainly in the Canary Islands. Yet despite being surprisingly easy to propagate they can be significantly priced at your local retailer. However you can bypass this cost but propagating your own Aeoniums. So check out this video where English horticulturist Lorna explains how to take cuttings from Aeoniums.

Hey guys, I'm a DIY subsciber and gardener from Lake Charles, LA (U.S.A.) who's partial to tropicals and succulents. I have a fairly good collection, including 5 desert roses and a good sized 3-branch plumeria, "Teresa Wilder".The desert roses that are all 6-8" tall and the plumie is around 4 feet.
Wow, that Aeonium is gorgeous. That will be next on my collection. I had a Perle Von Nurnberg a while back that unfortunately died apparently from root rot. I see losing a plant as a learning experience. One learns from his/her mistakes, don't we? In the case of the PVN, I take full credit for overwatering. I'm sure that's happened to all of us!
Keep the great videos coming. 🪴🌵🌴

Hi Dale, yes overwatering s arguably the biggest killer of plants. I see you are a fan of fancy echeverias, have you tried Echeveria agavoides ebony? Its a gorgeous cultivar (at least in my mind) and surprisingly tough. I leave mine in the unheated greenhouse to winter and they easily produce offsets if we get a decent summer.
