It's an addicting hobby! At my worst, I had over 350 different named varieties. And it all started with a few innocent leaves rooting so sweetly for me. LOL - it's a terrific way to expand your indoor varieties. I could never have been able to have such an expansive collection if not for the leaves being so much cheaper to purchase. I'd like to get back into it after my next birthday rolls by - Social Security kicks in, so I'll have more 'me' time. I will still have to work, just not as hard.
