Plenty of grit in the mix, water from the bottom and ideally a warm spot (south facing window in this case).
I'm well chuffed with this for a first effort!

You've answered your own question Moti.

.....and here I am trying to grow this from seed....wonder how many years until I see a flower.

Meanie, will the leaf cuttings bloom in the first year?

I doubt it Alex............
Should be a year or so ahead of seed grown though. But you need mature leafs for this process.
Which one are you growing?
