Yes, if you place a couple of leaves with stem of about two inches in a glass of water it will root. But if you leave it there to grow for a long time it won't be very strong. The leaf will grow much nicer if you plant them in some African violet soil less mix and place them in a zip lock bagy for six to eight weeks.
