Cause

Physical damage from pets, children, or vacuuming cannot be repaired due to lack of vascular reconnection in succulent foliage.

Solutions

  • Cut broken leaf cleanly at the base or snap point with sterilized shears.
  • Propagate in soil: Slice leaf into 1-2 inch sections (mark which side is 'down') and plant upright in moist cactus mix.
  • Wait 4-8 weeks for roots and new pups to form in bright indirect light.

Prevention

Relocate to low-traffic areas and use heavy, stable pots to prevent tipping.
