Name placeholders/wedding favors

My grandmother is actually growing succulents for my wedding. She said if you put a leaf in the soil it will root and start growing a new plant. So one plant can turn into several.

Looking online for succulents wasn't really that reasonably priced to me. But a local garden store was very reasonable.

So just taking a leaf from an already grown succulent and planting it in soil will grow more? Or getting seeds?

I got my succulents on Amazon! The guy sent us 8 varieties, we ordered them about a week and half out because I worried they would not come in time but I could have waited a little longer. They were prime shipping, we got them in two days. They were a few (like 3) that needed help so I would reccomend getting a few extra.

Loved, loved,.loved them! We did not have a single one left behind!
I put mine in wine glass boxes with a little care card that I printed on card stock.

I attached a screenshot of the shop from Amazon.

Succulents are super easy to grow, I have them all over my gardens. Just pull one of the pieces off as close to the base as possible, plant it in a shallow dish with pea gravel on the bottom and a little bit of soil, and let it go. They don't need tons of water. If you place them in a window that should be enough sun.

They pretty much do all the magic on their own — very easy! If it helps, you can search "how to propagate a succulent" online. You basically just pull off the "leaves" from a mature plant (often times they just fall off on their own) and lay the pieces on some soil. You'll see little white roots jet out within a matter of days, and the roots should naturally find their way into the soil. It will take many months to get them to a "giftable" size though, so start the process early if you're going this route! Here's a peak at what I'm talking about...
