Can this plant be rooted from one of its leaves? I’m asking since it is a tree-like plant. And I wasnt sure if it would grow its tree-like "stalk" by rooting it from a leave??
And do you know the common name for this?



Do you know the common name for this plant?

the first pic is an scheffelera or "umbrella tree"
from australia i believe. i dont think a leaf would root but i do believe that you can do what thay call air layering or you can cut the "trunk" into 3 pieces take the top of the plant and root that part. lay the middle section on some good soil and multiple plants should start from that,and the piece still in dirt with the roots cover the top with some moss,tie a little plastic bag around it and you should see new growth shortly.ahhh take a breath with me i get motor mouth sometimes . the 2nd picture is (i think) a philodendron. the selloum type well i hope that i was able to give you a little bit of help

The second plant looks like some kind of philodendron to me.
