I know I can go over the the Propagation Forum but I thought I could get some good advice right here in our House plant forum and that maybe some of you have the same questions. I'm going to post a couple pictures of my plants and see if any of you know the best way to propagate them. First I did post a picture of my Bougenvilla on this thread http://davesgarden.com/forums/t/700572/ If anyone is interested in taking a look at it.
Here is my Chiense Evergreen, I cut these off thinking that they would root in water very fast. No they didn't. I'v had these in water for weeks maybe a month or more and they don't look any different than when they went in.

Holly .... I love that Chinese Evergreen! I've never had luck rooting them in water either. Don't know why, I would think they would root easily that way. Hope someone will post some info here - I'm real interested to know why these guys don't seem to like the water rooting method!
As far as I know, nether Aglaonemas or Philos will root in water from just a leaf stem. To root these, you have to remove a section of the plant at the very bottom with some roots attached and pot it up. If it is a young plant, it may not yet have a multiple base where you can split it up.

You can always air layer around the nodes, too.
I was able to propagate that same Ag . The plant had been long neglected (Not by me!) and grown into three long winding stems with just a few leaves at the end. I cut the three tops off and planted them, then sectioned the rest and stuck them half into the soil. It seemd slow, but worked.
