My amazingly-propogating crassula leaf has sprouted not four, but five tiny plants.
I don't know if this is abnormal at all, but all the other times I've grown jade from a leaf stuck in the soil, only one or two came up, like this other plantlet in a nearby pot.
And just since I'm doing photos of crassula, the one I chopped its top off is now growing quite a few new branches on top.
At some point I'm going to have to cull them out; keep just the plants whose appearance I like best and give away (or compost?) the others. Because I really don't see a need (or space, if they grow up to small-shrub size) to have ten crassulas, which is what I've got now, even if they're all still fairly small.
