I’m thinking of doing some cuttings of my "Starfish flower", "Carrion flower"
(Stapelia gigantea, self identified). I don't know how to do cuttings. I just plucked a leaf off my dad’s plant and put it in some soil, (wrong kind) and its doing great. It worked for me but I don't know if it will work for others, so is that about it, or is there a better way? I want to offer the cuttings up for a trade in the trade forum, but I’ve never shipped anything to do with plants. What precautions do I need to ensure a safe arrival?
Heres a pic of the flower. Its the best part of the plant.
