sedum pachyphyllum is growing extrmely well.  can I propagate
the plant like a jade plant, and simply cut the ends off and root
them?

succulent at the same time as writing this question - i forgot
whether i sent it to you already.  if i have, please disregard this
email.

Answer
Peter,

Yes, you sent a picture but I couldn't open it, I need it as a .jpg file.

Yes, cutting from succulents including jades and sedum pachyphylums root easily. Take the cuttings and leave them lie on a table for the cut to dry for 48 hours then insert them in a fresh pot of soil. Use a very sandy soil to root them in and you do not need rooting hormone but do not overwater. Keep it on the dry side and keep the light on at least 12-14 hours and they will root easily.
Good luck.

Darlene
