My daughter purchased this leaf from a Aloe Vera plant and now she wants to know what to do with it. I have never proprogated an aloe vera plant so have no idea what to do.

I first thought she had plans to use it as first aid. But she was told to stick the leaf in water and it would root. I have placed it in water but no roots or new growth yet.

Any one have experience with growing a new plant from a leaf of aloe vera?
I don't but I'm actually interested now. Does anyone know how long it takes to start seeing aloe stalks? I love aloe plants and think they make great indoor plants. I'd love to use the one I already have to grow more instead of buying new plants.

I think that you only have to put it in soil, simple as that. My mother does this with her aloes and gives the new ones as small presents to family members.
