aeoniums

Vancouver, BC(Zone 7a)

Well, back from hot sunny Palm Springs. (Froze my butt off!!) Nope, shoot! It's still there! Oh well.
Went through Home Depot there and brought lots of new (to me) succulents back, did my good girl thng and cut them off at the dirt. Wow, that hurt me to be so honest.
Anyway, still went through Canadian Agriculture inspection, but passed with flying colours.
Now, to my delight, I have tons of cuttings to try to root.
Most, I think I can manage, but lots of different aeoniums. I have saved both leaves and rosettes. Do I have any chance with just leaves? Any advice will be welcome.

If it's still cold you can start them with leaves, gently pull the leaf away from the stem, leaving a heal, or even a piece of skin from the stem. Now lay them on their side in the fresh slightly damp soil and wait for about three weeks, don't let the soil dry out completely. These leaves must be kept in filtered light or low light, here they would burn up. They like it cool. Norma
