Plantlets fall from the mother's leaves and immediately take root. It is easy to pluck unwanted (yet numerous) plants before they grow if you just keep an eye on them.

A If this plant didnt already have enough ways to reproduce itself... look at this: these old flowers are now supported dozens of tiny new plants!

This is why I grow this plant. Yes, it is a bit invasive. But the blooms in January make up for it. This one is 6 feet tall and in full bloom

This is actually a young plant. You can see how the plantlets grow on the leaves. this will definitely produce many other plants.

- 'These windowsill weeds, I was weeding my pots, rather than let them perish I sent them to you!' - This is how I got them from a friend in England on Jan 29th (after a journey of 6 days in the dark, wrapped up dry in a piece of paper)

Mother of Thousands - Close shot. I enjoy its color and strength! Many babies off this 1yr old - 18' plant..

Mother of Thousands, Mexican Hat Plant (Bryophyllum daigremontianum) - 2 "baby" plants I gave my friend 2 years ago. They did not freeze during a low of 23° F. Mine did even though we live in the same neighborhood. Guess hers had more protection from her house than mine did. The top blooms that receive less full sun are much darker than the blooms that receive full sun most of the time (bottom right).

I love these things, but I'm not looking forward to trying to control it over the next few years.

We brought the original plant to Texas in 1977, get new plants every year. It bloomed the first time in 2003. Im sorry the pic is out of focus and it was the end of the blooming season. Ill try again next year.
